Opportunities From: Montgomery County Volunteer Center

Volunteer: Diaper Bank Assistance - Driver/Sorter

Help MCCH clients receive diapers!

Each month, the Greater DC Diaper Bank provides diapers and baby items to MCCH for the families we serve.

We are looking for a volunteer to pick up, drop off, and sort our diaper order so that our direct care team can easily distribute diapers to our clients. 

This volunteer would drive to the GDCDB in Silver Spring, load our order into their vehicle, "shop" in the baby pantry, bring the order back to our main office, unload, and sort the diapers into groups by program. The first run would be with an MCCH staff member, and a virtual orientation will likely be provided by the GDCDB. After the first delivery, a MCCH staff member will be in the office available to assist you.

This is a great in-person opportunity for someone who is free during business hours (M-F 9am-5pm) and can commit 2-3 hours once a month. Volunteers will need a vehicle with ample storage space (Minivans, SUVs, or Hatchbacks work great)

 

Email volunteer@mcch.net for more details. We would love to help you take the next step!

Volunteer: Mini Hub Collection Drive

You can help MCCH by restocking our Mini Hubs! 

A Mini Hub is a stock of everyday items that our clients frequently need. We build this stock so that basic items like toiletries or cleaning supplies do not financially strain our clients. Clients ask our staff for access to the Mini Hub where they can “shop” for free!

 We currently have four sites with Mini Hubs:

Nebel Street Emergency Shelter (200 Men) Seneca Heights Apartments (17 Families, 40 Individuals) Cordell Place (32 Individuals) Admin Office (All programs get access)

You can help our clients by re-stocking the Mini Hub of your choosing. How you approach this is up to you! You can focus on collecting multiple of one item, or you can try to collect a smaller amount of every item!

Not approved for MCPS SSL hours. See guidelines for agencies on how virtual opportunities may be considered for SSL.

Volunteer: Provide Meals for MCCH Homeless Shelter

Help the men at our homeless shelter by providing meals.   Our team is working hard to help men resolve their urgent challenges and move into housing.   We rely on our community to donate the meals needed each day.  There is no kitchen onsite so meals are cooked and delivered/dropped off at our Crabbs Branch Center food hub.  

During Covid, our shelter has expanded to several sites and increased capacity to care for all men who don't have a home.  Men can stay 24/7 and have access to a variety of onsite services.  

Meals needed each breakfast, lunch, dinner:  120

Please schedule meal donations online: www.tinyurl.com/mcchmeals

Our website also has good details about donating meals:  https://mcch.net/donate-a-meal/

For more information or questions, contact us at meals@mcch.net

Thank you for being part of helping people in crisis move forward!
