Volunteer Positions with No Required Time Commitment
Too busy to commit to a weekly or monthly volunteer position, but still want to get involved? Here are positions for you:
Each quarter we gather together for a few hours to assemble all the items necessary to get our newsletter ready for mailing. Plus, there are other occasional mailings. There’s a lot of sticking on labels and stuffing envelopes! This is a great project for families to do together — all ages can help.
Bulk Mailings
In every location, we have things that need repair, maintenance or outright creating. We usually have a list of things we hope to tackle. Many church groups or other organizations like to adopt us to complete one service project.
Work Projects
Location: Phoenix
Three times a year, we have a team spend one Saturday and one Sunday collecting items to fill a semi-truck from the parking lot of Scottsdale Bible Church. We need people willing to assist in packing the items, writing gift-in-kind receipts and just being there to accept the donations. We especially need young men to help move heavy furniture and other items.
Scottsdale Truck Collection
Three times a year, we have a team spend one Monday unloading the semi truck from Scottsdale at the Hopeful Treasures Resale Boutique. We need people willing to unload, sort, test and price items to get them to the sales floor as quickly and efficiently as possible so we can get them sold.
Scottsdale Truck Unload
We have fundraising events scheduled throughout the year and each one requires an action team. Attend a planning session and let us know how you would like to help make our fundraising event a success.
