The National Runaway Safeline (NRS) is a non-project organization dedicated to keeping runaway, homeless, and at-risk youth safe and off the streets. We do this through a 24-hour crisis hotline, live chat, crisis email, online forum, text, and prevention services.
We are seeking volunteers to stuff the holiday appeal mailers for NRS. There will be work stations set up and various shifts are available Wed. 11/15, Thu. 11/16, and Fri. 11/17. If necessary, additional shifts will be added as the goal is to have this project completed and mailed before Thanksgiving.
Single volunteers and volunteer groups are welcome. Please email volunteer@1800runaway.org to schedule your date and time. Thank you!
