Volunteer: Staff the Capitol Hill Tool LibraryJoin our crew to learn new skills, connect with your community, and have lots of fun. No prior experience required! How we serve the community The Capitol Hill Tool Library empowers our neighborhood to build DIY skills and improve sustainability, through offering tool borrowing, workspace, and classes. Our inventory includes over 3,000 items, ranging from ice cream makers to hedge trimmers to sewing machines to drills. Our workshop has spaces for woodworking, jewelry making, and 3D printing. And our classes cover everything from backpacking to kombucha brewing wood shop safety to tax prep. We're an entirely volunteer staff, and everything we offer is free or pay-what-you-can so that we can serve everyone in the community. What skills you’ll need Absolutely none. Really! Many of us (including the person writing this listing!) came to the tool library with no DIY, woodworking, or "maker" experience at all - just an interest in connecting with our neighborhood. It’s very easy to learn on the job. What you’ll do We're open six days per week, for three hours each day. You'll pick a day to come in for, where you and one or two other tool librarians will serve patrons and improve the library. This includes checking tools in and out (like a library book), organizing inventory, helping patrons plan their projects, designing outreach and signage, and repairing broken items. During your first shift, you’ll get an orientation from an existing volunteer and we’ll help you find tasks that you enjoy. Why you’ll be excited Staffing the tool library is a fun, rewarding way to connect with your community. You’ll meet your neighbors and help them with projects that they’re infectiously enthusiastic about. You’ll also learn a ton through your own tasks - whether it’s by cataloging new inventory, chatting with patrons, or opening up and trying to repair items. You’ll do all this while working as a team with other sociable, community-minded tool librarians who are excited to make Capitol Hill a better place. You'll also have a chance to meet tool librarians from other shifts at our monthly volunteer potlucks.

Volunteer: Be a Home Delivery Food Box Packing specialist!Help ensure food security for your neighbors by volunteering with North Helpline's food bank in Lake City! Some neighbors do not have the ability or connections necessary to shop for themselves at our weekly food distributions. To counter these barriers, North Helpline provides home delivery to homebound individuals every other week on Tuesday and Thursday. We pack on Tuesday and Thursdays from 9:30am-1:30pm with dietary needs and restrictions in mind. Because of this and the particular needs of some neighbors, attention to detail is a key attribute needed to help pack these boxes. Dietary knowledge for needs such as diabetes, gluten intolerance, and food allergies, as well as the ability to lift up to 30 pounds is also a plus. Interested in working with us? Click the "Respond" button and we will follow up with you. We hope to hear from you soon! A couple extra points: We require all volunteers scheduled to work on-site to be fully vaccinated against Covid-19 and present proof of vaccination before they start their shift. If you have questions regarding this, feel free to email or message us. Please wear season-appropriate clothing as our warehouse is not a climate-controlled environment.

Food distribution is ”market style” which includes loading food on tables and assisting clients with their food choices as they come through the indoor market, packing boxes with food and loading the boxes into cars for our home delivery program, sorting donated food and general organizing and cleaning. The rewards of volunteering can be tremendous. You will be helping individuals and families to meet one of their most basic needs, putting food on their table. As a volunteer at the MSC Food Bank, we ask that you meet the following requirements: Willing to wear a mask at all times and stay at home if you are not feeling well. Age 16 or older and go through a background check. Able to lift 20-35 pounds and able to stand/walk for periods of time, bending/stooping/lifting is also involved. Be comfortable working in an indoor/outdoor environment.MSC’s food bank needs approximately 16-20 volunteers a day to effectively serve the community. Volunteers are needed Monday through Friday. Volunteer shifts are from 9am-12pm or 12pm-3pm. MSC’s food bank is following CDC and public health guidelines during the pandemic.
