Children's Holiday Movie, presented by Anthem Blue Cross, raises $170,000 for our pediatric programs to ensure that our youngest patients have access to all of the services necessary to keep families and children healthy. As a part of this event, we also create a special holiday celebration for 1,200 pediatric patients and their families. They will enjoy a private screening of a children’s holiday movie, holiday entertainment and gift bags with books and toys. The theater, entertainment and toys for the event are all underwritten, so all proceeds go to supporting Venice Family Clinic pediatrics.
Volunteers are needed in the weeks leading up to the event to unbox and sort thousands of toys and books that will be gifted to children at the event. Please review the information below and let us know if you are available to help. SPECIAL NOTE: This role requires some heaving lifting.

Other Ways to HelpNot a fan of heavy lifting? Please note that we also have a need for PHONE BANKING VOLUNTEERS (e xcellent customer service skills required ). Volunteers will assist by making personal calls to previous donors in order to spread the word about our largest campaign for Venice Family Clinic’s Pediatrics Program . Our year-end phone campaign is an important revenue stream as volunteers will be able to engage directly with our networks and gain valuable experience in community engagement and donor engagement.

Mission Statement
To provide quality primary health care to people in need.
Description
Over the past 50 years, Venice Family Clinic’s mission of providing quality primary health care to people in need hasn’t changed, but its scope has broadened dramatically. Today, the Clinic has about 400 staff members and more than 1,300 volunteers who serve 28,000 patients, without regard for their ability to pay or immigration status. Its programs have expanded beyond primary medical care to include dental, vision, behavioral health, exercise classes, health education, early childhood development - and street medicine for people experiencing homelessness, to ensure even the most vulnerable of its neighbors get the medical care they deserve.
Our Volunteer Services Department strives to recruit and connect the best volunteers possible with almost every department within the clinic. We work to provide support to the volunteers as well as the clinic teams whom they help. Every year, we work with over 1400 volunteers, including approximately 500 provider volunteers. Our department helps with recruiting, training, scheduling, and general upkeep of all volunteers.
