Weekend Reserves - Event Early May - Salvation Army

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: The Salvation Army of Summit County

The Salvation Army is looking to assemble a team of volunteers that primarily have weekend availability. We know many people have Monday-Friday jobs that prevent them from getting involved in our food pantry or serving hot meals - but you still have the heart to help in the community on the weekends.

As the Volunteer Coordinator I'm putting together a group of people that I could call/email (which a 2 weeks notice or more) to see if they may be available for projects.

This projects could be on site help, working in the community (etc). The projects come up sporadically and many times we have to say "no" because we just don't have the volunteers to do them. If we build an "on reserve" team we could perhaps handle these community assistance projects easier on the weekends.

If you have interest in being part of the "weekend reserve" team please contact John Kasler, Volunteer Coordinator via this site or call/text me at 330.958.2906. Texting is best but if you call just leave a VM.

Thank you!
