About this Opportunity

Having a volunteer to monitor our laundry and help organize the clean items is a huge help towards making sure wehave the necessary clothing and linens for our clients. This position also helpsus to redistribute donations we cannot use to other agencies. These volunteers willput items into the washer and dryer, organize the donation areas (relevantto items being washed),communicate information to the staff, and coordinate with other agencies on donations we cannot take that they may be able to use.

This is a flexible, on-call opportunity.
