RMH Building Services Volunteer

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Ronald McDonald House Charities, Upper Midwest

At our 5 Minnesota locations, we keep families close to the care they need.

Volunteers are the Heart of the House - register for orientation here

Building Services volunteers work closely with our maintenance staff on facility projects and upkeep tasks to keep the House safe, functional, and welcoming for our families. Key responsibilities for Building Services volunteers include:

  • Deep cleaning tasks
  • Vacuuming common spaces and stairwells
  • Trash collection
  • Dusting surface
  • Outdoor maintenance
Typical House and Commitment

Building Services volunteers commit to a weekly or bi-weekly shift that is typically 2-3 hours long between 10am-5pm seven days a week. We ask that volunteers commit to a minimum of one full semester, or 50 hours.

Is the Building Services role right for you?

Building services volunteers are on their feet and moving about the House during their shifts. They feel comfortable working on assigned tasks independently, and take pride in making the House a home for families. This role is great for individuals with:

  • A strong attention to detail and ability to work on your feet throughout shift
  • The ability to work independently
  • Good communication skills
  • Open to helping with new tasks
  • A willingness to learn and perform common cleaning skills
Training

An overview of your position will be provided during your orientation and House tour. On the day of your first shift, you will meet some of the RMH staff members who will be providing you guidance throughout your time in the House. More detailed training and guidelines will be provided at the start of each shift. A criminal background check and health screening is required before starting this role.
