We are excited to have you volunteer with us! Please complete the form below to tell us a little about yourself. We look forward to serving with you. Here are some current needs that we have:

Mover - No regular commitment required.  Respond when available.  Show up, follow directions, have fun, move furniture, meet people,etc. Husband and wives and children (11 and up best) welcome.

Driver - Picks up the truck, greets the volunteers, coordinates loading and creating teams, casts vision for the day and leads in prayer. Insurance provided.  Waiver form required.

Needs Assessor (NA) - 0 - 4 hours per week.  Receives "needs" from NIC and makes contact with the individual (or sponsor or partner ministry) to determine validity of need and details of what's needed.  Often involves learning about the person's situation and offering additional advice and guidance.  At the NA's discretion the person may be visited.  Visit warehouse to identify and tag needed items.  (Recipients are not allowed to visit the warehouse to pick things out or pick things up but sponsors can).  Notify NIC when all items are ready for delivery.

Needs Intake Coordinator (NIC) - 5-10 hours per week.  Check hotline voicemail and web generated e-mails for new "needs".  Based on information provided (or phone call if needed) prioritize these needs and assign to Needs Assessors for screening.  Based on Needs Assessors assessment, work with NA to schedule deliveries.  Provide delivery information to Scheduler 3 days ahead of scheduled move days.  This job works best when the individual has basic spreadsheet and e-mail skills and good organization.
