A Precious Child’s Satellite Boutiques Need You! Our offsite Boutiques are in need of individuals with a leadership mindset and a passion to help others. Apply your managerial and organizational skills to A Precious Child and help us serve thousands of children across the state! A Precious Child's Boutiques are satellite resource centers that are located in schools and shelters and are dedicated to providing basic essentials for children in need. Through A Precious Child's main Donation Center in Broomfield, we stock schools and agency partner Boutique locations with age-appropriate clothing. Our goal is to meet the need where it's at by providing clothing and other basic essentials to children in need so they can thrive in school. Boutique Volunteers play an important role in making sure that each of our boutique locations continues to serve children and families with basic essentials through an empowering shopping experience. Volunteers will ensure that their assigned boutique locations have the inventory that they need to continue to serve clients. This position assists the Store Manager by shopping in the resource center when needed to complete inventory requests, works close with Store Manager to deliver, replenish and organize areas throughout the boutique and ensures all boutiques provide a dignified shopping experience to children and families in need. The time commitment is very flexible and will depend on organizational and staff needs. However, we ask that volunteers be able to provide a six-month commitment and willing to lead at least two or more Boutique locations. We are looking for individuals who are detail oriented and enjoy working with the public. If you are someone with strong communication and managerial mindsets A Precious Child would love to have you join our Volunteer Team! If you would like more information or have any questions please contact Joshua Walsh, Volunteer Associate, at Joshua@apreciouschild.org

Food Bank of the Rockies (FBR) is the largest, private, hunger-relief organization in Colorado, distributing over 130,000 meals daily through over 1,000 hunger-relief partner agencies, as well as FBR's many direct service programs. These programs include: Kid's Cafe, providing prepared meals to children at child care facilities. Totes of Hope, providing discreet backpacks of food to children for the weekend, when other nutrition programs are not available. USDA programs, such as the Commodity Supplemental Food Program (CSFP) that provides a monthly food allowance to seniors. Denver's Table Food Rescue Program, that sends refrigerated trucks to collect surplus food from retailers. Mobile Pantry, that distributes food in rural communities and under-served urban communities. Each month, a group from Metro Volunteers helps FBR with packing food boxes, reclamation of food donated by individuals and food retailers, or (most often) distribution of food boxes under the CSFP. This work is not demanding, but volunteers should be comfortable lifting boxes weighing about 20 pounds, and should expect to be working outside some of the time. The FBR warehouse is located near I-70 and Havana, and volunteers need to arrive between 8:30 and 8:45. The work finishes by 12:30, although volunteers will often be able to leave earlier than that, depending on how busy we are. NOTE: FBR requires that volunteers wear closed toe shoes and a shirt with sleeves. NOTE: Since the number of volunteers I can bring is restricted, this project is not suitable for groups of more than 2 or 3 people. If you have any questions, please contact the project coordinator, Lindsay Packer (click on the email link below).
