Wanted: VIP Receptionist(s) for the The Blind Community Center of San Diego (BCCSD). Volunteers are the heart of our organization. The volunteer receptionist will answer the phone, greet and sign in guests and visitors and manage the front desk. COVID vaccinations and boosters are required of volunteers and students as many of our blind and low vision people are vulnerable and we are being very careful with their health. The BCCSD gives blind and visually disabled people in our community a place to go every day. BCCSD participants are able to socialize with their peers, make crafts, play games and have a free lunch every day. Social activities help people stay healthy and motivated to live a better life. We are a 501c3 charitable organization and we are looking for special volunteers to help us with our reception desk duties and light telephone answering on Wednesdays and Fridays. You may apply to volunteer for one day or two days. This is a fun opportunity for the right person. Are you cheerful and do you have a happy attitude? This may be the opportunity you are seeking. If you would like to help the BCC help blind and low vision community members, please let us know.

Craft Class Help Wanted at Blind Community Center of San Diego. One of the goals at the BCCSD is to foster independence. Volunteers don't make the crafts for the blind, they help students make the crafts themselves. Because many of our blind and low vision students have underlying conditions leaving them vulnerable to COVID, the following precautions are necessary. All volunteers must be up to date on COVID vaccinations and booster shots. Distancing and hand sanitizing is required. Students and volunteers will have a specific schedule assigned to them. In person craft classes at the BCC will be held on Mondays and Tuesdays. All crafts will be taught to volunteers while working with students. Crafts may include beaded items, fabric wreaths, jewelry, Christmas ornaments,macrame, crochet and knitting projects. Currently we don't have a volunteer to teach knitting or crochet. Maybe this is something you can help with. On Mondays and Tuesdays craft class hours are from 9 a.m. until 1 p.m. If you enjoy working with fun people and like crafting, this may be an opportunity for you. Please email if you have questions and would like to join our Blind Community Center craft classes.
