Collect Sports Equipment

Get Connected Icon Get Connected Icon ongoing

Description

This is an opportunity to help collect sports equipment within your community. Volunteers can collect at their schools, offices, rec centers, etc. and/or amongst neighbors, teammates, family, and friends. We need local volunteers and their communities to help us ensure that all of the unused equipment around the DMV ends up in our warehouse so that we can turn around and donate it to programs in need!

We can provide marketing materials and collection bins for all interested volunteers. Most volunteers drop donations off at our warehouse and stay to inventory/sort those donations, but a pickup can be scheduled if needed.

Volunteer responsibilities include: 

  • Identifying a school or community organization that is willing to do a collection drive
  • Advertising the drive to the selected group
  • Making arrangements with our organization to drop off donations or schedule a pickup 

*If you are seeking SSL hours, please make sure you have a school sponsor or nonprofit representative (who is not your parent/guardian or relative) to supervise your service in a public space and track your hours. Students may not earn SSL hours for running a collection drive on their own.
