Nonprofit Volunteer Opportunities in PDX
Essential Bag Packing and Delivery:
Volunteer to package and deliver the essential items to a youth impacted by foster care. This position is typically weekly or bi-weekly, but can also be "drop in." You can schedule regular shifts that work in your schedule to package the requested items and deliver them to the foster child within 48 hours. The office is typically open Monday - Thursday 8:45a - 4:15p (we tend to work remotely on Friday).
Warehouse Volunteer:
Do you love to organize while supporting kids in need? Join our team as a warehouse volunteer to routinely organize clothes and store new inventory. This is a flexible volunteer opportunity with goal of providing 1-2 hours of support a week.
Event Support:
Love to plan parties and events? We are always looking for creative and organized individuals to support our 2 main fundraising events: Impact Night in May and our golf tournament in September. Meetings are held monthly and bi-weekly via zoom.
Life Skills Program Mentor:
Are you a trauma-informed mentor, coach, or teacher? Once you're an "official" Project 48 volunteer and we've gotten to know each other, we'd love to talk more about the opportunity to work directly with youth through our Life Skills Program.
Donation Outreach:
Can't swing the typical volunteer hours? Help us from the comfort of your laptop! This could include reaching out to companies for what we call "in-kind" donations (think shoes, toiletries, etc.) or helping with local PR and marketing.
Note: Part of becoming a volunteer includes a background check.
