Looking for a hands-on way to make a real difference in your community? Join the team at the St. Vincent de Paul, Holmes Outreach Center!

Every item donated helps support neighbors in need through affordable shopping opportunities, emergency assistance, and direct community outreach. As a Donation Volunteer, you’ll play an important role in turning donated goods into hope for local families.

This is a fast-paced, active volunteer opportunity perfect for individuals who enjoy teamwork, staying busy, and giving back in a meaningful way.

• Greeting and assisting donors as they drop off items 
• Accepting and sorting donated items
• Helping organize merchandise
• Assisting with light lifting and moving donations
• Keeping the donation area clean, safe, and welcoming
• Working alongside a fun, mission-driven team

No experience is necessary — just a positive attitude and a willingness to help others!

Whether you can volunteer one time or every week, your time and energy directly support critical services for members of our community facing hardship.
