Child and Shield

Have you always wondered what it was like to be one of Santa's elves? Thanks to this great volunteer opportunity now you can experience it firsthand!

As Santa’s elf, you'll use your organizational skills and toy knowledge to fulfill our Corps and Community Center toy requests. You’ll be coming to our Bell Warehouse where you will help sort, label, organize, count, and package toys into bags to be distributed to deserving children in communities throughout Southern California for this year’s Christmas Assistance Program 2019.

Please Note:
Spaces are limited and later sorting dates are subject to change based on toy inventory.

The toy sorting will be held December 10th-17th M-F, shifts are available from 8:30am-Noon, 1pm-3pm, or 9am-4pm.

The Salvation Army's reputation as an international humanitarian organization and effective social service provider is best summed up by management expert Peter Drucker who said, "The Salvation Army is by far the most effective organization in the United States."
