Want to make a difference?
Help provide essential clothing, gear, and services to low-income families by screening, cleaning, sorting, organizing, and inventorying donations. This role is hands-on and perfect for active individuals ready to roll up their sleeves, stand for potentially long periods, and lift relatively lightweight products. Interested individuals must be somewhat tech-savvy and ideally willing to commit to 6-8 hours of service per week. This opportunity is located in the Garment District of Manhattan.
Guess what?! There are even more great opportunities for volunteers 55 and older in all 5 boroughs!
RSVP works with over 250 other partner organizations as well. If this opportunity is not for you, we can help you find another that is. Attend one of our Learn and Link events or schedule a placement interview today!
**Please note: all RSVP volunteer opportunities are for individuals 55 and older; also, most assignments are with our partners located across the City**
