Core Volunteer

Core volunteers are the foundation of support that StandUp for Kids relies upon to offer support to homeless youth in Kitsap County. Volunteers may choose from a number of roles to support our mission. Those roles include: Food Bag Assembly: Periodically work with others to prepare weekend food bags, which are distributed to homeless and at risk youth through the school systems. Inventory Support: Periodically organize items which are packed into weekend food bags. May include assisting with picking up donated or purchased items from local outlets. Delivery Driver: Our primary distribution method is to supply schools with food and hygiene packs. The school partners then distribute them to the students. Delivery is generally one day on either Wednesday, Thursday or Friday. Personal vehicle is necessary to deliver packs. Food Drive Support: Help in two hour shifts at food drives, which provide a significant contribution to our weekend food bag distribution. Community Outreach Booth Worker: Help in two hour shifts at events like Pride, Whaling Days, etc. Represent StandUp for Kids, sharing information about how we can help homeless youth, and how people can volunteer or donate to support our efforts. Fundraising Support: Assist with our fundraising events.
