Opportunity Details
Sort/Package Children's Clothing
The Sharing Shelf at FSW - Westchester’s clothing bank for children. • New volunteers - Welcome! To get started, "Express Interest " below and let's schedule a date for your training and orientation. • If you are a first -time volunteer, we require a minimum two hour commitment. Children must be 10 years or older to volunteer and those ages 10-13 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian who actively volunteers with them. • For clothing donations - we prefer if you bring donations during these hours. Equipment must be donated at our warehouse during our open hours. We collect and distribute new and gently used clothing in sizes from newborn through XXL, for children and teens from infancy through age 19. Volunteers meet in our Port Chester warehouse where donations are screened then sorted by size, season and gender. Social workers, therapists, teachers, attorneys and others working with low-income families in our community submit requests for their clients. Our volunteers then create packages filled with a week’s worth of seasonally appropriate clothing matched into outfits according to a child’s sizing needs.
