Adopt A Family Database and Tech Support

Save to Favorites

The Adopt a Family program provides clothing, toys, and food to over 400 of Santa Cruz County's neediest families during the holiday season. We are looking for volunteers to help with this project.

Volunteer Duties include: Entering Family Adoption information into our databases to ensure we have all the necessary information for volunteers to shop for the families. This organizing is critical to ensure the project gets off to a great start with all the essential information in the correct places. After the project is launched volunteers keep track of adoptions, enter this year's donor information into our database, and indicate which families have been adopted.

Volunteer Shifts & Time Commitment: We need volunteers for 2-4 hours per week from October 17th - October 24th. This is our big push to get all the family wish-lists finished before the program launches on November 1st. Some of this can be done remotely - after being trained.

We also need volunteers from Octobers 24th - December 20th. To help with entering donor information.

You are not required to volunteer for the duration of the project but being able to do more than one shift is helpful.

Volunteer Qualifications include: comfort using computers and simple database and attention to detail.

Location: Santa Cruz Volunteer Center, 1740 17th ave, Santa Cruz, Ca. 95062
