Do you want to have an impact in the community but don't have much free time? Donation Shuttle Driver might be the perfect fit for you!

Partners in Housing is a non-profit that provides transitional housing to families experiencing homelessness in Colorado Springs. Throughout their year in the program, families will have access to self-sufficiency classes, job readiness programs, budget counseling, child support, and more. After entering the Partners in Housing program, 90% of families find stable housing.

Lincoln Donation Center is our hub for all donations that come to Partners in Housing. This is where we make the decision to put items out for families to shop or pass them along to other organizations that are in need. Items donated from the community are given to Partner families (families in the Partners in Housing program) at no cost. While many items remain at Lincoln Donation Center, more immediate needs such as food, diapers, hygiene items, bedding, kitchenware, and baby clothing are shuttled to Colorado House (an easier-to-access location for many families).

Shifts are available Monday through Thursday, 9AM to 4PM. Shifts are 1-2 hours.

Volunteers in this position drive pre-sorted boxes/bags of donations using their personal vehicle from Lincoln Donation Center (450 Gold Pass Heights) to Colorado House (21 S. Wahsatch Ave). Volunteers will need to be able to bend, twist, and lift boxes and bags of household donations/clothing when loading and unloading their vehicle. A typical shift is less than 1 hour!

Come join us and make a difference in our client's lives and work with an awesome team!

  • Load/unload boxes/bags of donations into vehicle.
