Every Thursday morning we need volunteers to transport our orders from KidVantage in Issaquah to our storage unit (also in Issaquah) where the items are sorted in prepartion for delivery to the families' homes.   A larger vehicle is a plus but we can fit a lot even into a sedan!

CAs identify coaching/mentoring, adaptability, influencing, presenting information, delegating and teambuilding as some of the competencies they sharpened.

Volunteer at Paradise Parking Plots Community Garden and support our refugee neighbors! Our 2-acre community garden provides space for refugee, immigrant and Kent resident gardeners to grow cultural foods and reconnect with the soil. Our shared spaces, such as our food forest, rain gardens, pollinator berms, and restoration areas need a lot of love and attention to stay healthy, productive, and beautiful. Volunteers help to ensure this shared site stays maintained and safe for gardeners to continue grow and nature to thrive.

We are looking for work, church, or other community organizations that have availability to bring a group of volunteers out to support with essential gardening and maintenance tasks! We are able to accommodate most events during the week with some limited capacity to schedule Saturday events. If you are interested, please sign up for this volunteer opportunity and we will follow up within 1-2 weeks to gather more details on your availability and interest.

Note: we request a commitment of a minimum of 10-15 volunteers to schedule an event for your organization. Don’t have this many volunteers? Check out our website's Events page to see if there are already scheduled events you can join or email the Community Garden Coordinator to inquire further.

All profits from the Thrift Store come back to Jubilee REACH and right back into the community. In order to keep costs low at the store, we keep a minimal staff on board. This means that we need LOTS of helping hands. Every hour volunteered at the Thrift Store is giving funds back to the community.

Thrift Store Duties: Daily, our store receives a steady flow of donated items, and without help, these donations can add up quickly. Volunteers help us process these donations, prepare them to be priced, and put them out on the sales floor. Tasks typically involve hanging clothes, pairing up shoes, cutting price tags, re-arranging items on shelves, organizing books, and helping keep the sales floor "shoppable." 

Your first step as a volunteer is to apply through this link: https://www.jubileereach.org/volunteer

From there, you will be prompted to schedule a Meet and Greet to talk about volunteering with us.

We look forward to getting to know you!

Volunteer Testimonials:  

How it feels to be a tutor at YTP: "like I'm helping, maybe if only a little bit, to the students becoming better learners and advocates for themselves" - a current tutor at YTP  

We asked our volunteers what they enjoy most about tutoring with YTP:  

"The students are amazing and I learn something new from them every session"  

"Getting to know the kids... which is a huge difference from other youth outreach experiences. They teach me... how to be better at teaching and are just fun to hang out with"  

"I think my favorite memories will always be watching my student experience "Aha!" moments. Realizing that I am helping this student learn something they previously had trouble with is very satisfying. I also appreciate the strong relationship that we have formed over the year and value it."  

How This Helps Our Community:  

We welcome everyone who wants to help and particularly encourage members of the Black community and people of color to volunteer with us. Almost all of YTP's students are people of color and roughly 85% come from immigrant families and many of our students are of East African descent. We believe African-American tutors will support them in navigating American culture, as tutoring is not only about academics but relationship building and socio-emotional support. We need your help to strengthen our diverse community and raise our collective efforts to improve our students' education across the city.  

Skills Desired*:  

*No Experience Required, but we welcome volunteers with background and experience to apply!

The Disability Empowerment Center in Seattle is currently working on a project to map out King County to create a searchable database of inclusive, accessible businesses.  The database is on-line and called BluePath (Blue-Path.org).  Anyone can access it to see the accessibility of a business that is listed.

Volunteers are needed to canvas businesses on a friendly basis to ask them if they would like to be listed on the site (it is free).  Volunteers along with business owners/managers then do a quick assessment of the location.  The business will receive a BluePath verified window decal in the mail after being added to the database.

Volunteers will receive training in the Americans with Disabilities Act Title III Public Accommodations, a 2 – hour training that can take place at our downtown office, virtually via zoom, or in-person for teams of 10 or more. 

Volunteers will receive 1 entry per completed survey into the raffles at the end of the Map-A-Thon term (August 8th).  Raffle prizes currently confirmed include:

Seattle Bouldering Project (4 Day Passes with shoe rental, $149 msrp); Argosy Cruises (4 Passes for the Harbor Cruise, $196 msrp); and John’s Crazy Socks (Box of Socks, $150 msrp).

SCF Volunteers are the reason we are able to make the impact we do to seniors across the nation. Volunteers write cards that make seniors excited about their day! Senior Care First runs solely because of the support we receive from our volunteers.

At Senior Care First, we believe that any sized effort to make a difference is a difference nonetheless. Making cards for seniors have such a huge impact on their days. Volunteers like YOU help them feel a little less alone each day. This effort started with small motivational cards for senior citizens to help them get through this day, and has grown to include seasonal cards for the holidays.

Writing cards for seniors is not only to put lighten up the days of seniors but also to let them know there is a support system outside of their homes filled with loving young members of their community. There is no specific way to make the cards since YOU, the volunteer, have creative liberty. However, we encourage volunteers to use bright colors and inspiring messages to share love for the seniors. We have heard several positive messages from senior homes after receiving cards from SCF. From writing general motivational and inspiring cards to holiday related cards, we give them all.
