Every year I volunteer with the Salvation Army with differnt events they host during the Christmas season. This year volunteers are needed at their Bell Warehouse in Los Angeles to sort toys to be delivered to needy families.

SALVATION ARMY REQUIREMENTS:
must be fulluy vaccinated.
masks must be worn in the warehouse.
comfortable attire and closed toe shoes.
(you may get dirty so please do not wear anything really nice)
no personal belongings should be brought into the warehouse and should be left in your car.

This is a fun event. There are lots of toys to sort.
Trucks are constantly dropping off and picking up donated toys to and from the warehouse.

There may be some downtime if we finish sorting toys sooner than expected but during that time there are other preparations to be made before the next delivery. For example, labeling, sorting and breaking down boxes.

Since the Salvation Army also provides many other services during major disasters, help may be needed with preparing personal hygiene kits and special packages for families in need.

No guarantees but last year the Salvation Army provided snacks and drinks for volunteers.

If you wish to participate please send me a PM with your email address/phone number and I will forward to the coordinator.

I will email the warehouse location once everything is confirmed.

The two volunteer dates are Tuesday 12/14 and 12/16 (I will post a separate event for this date).
Hours are the same for both dates 9am to 12pm.

Parking is free.

CDH POLICY: Any member with two NO SHOWS on CDH events since Jan 2017 will lose their membership with CDH. Members will not be allowed on this and future events until they have updated their CDH profile by answering the new questions as well as having a recognizable face photo of themselves. This update cannot be done via an app, an iPhone or any other type of a hand-held phone. It must be done on a computer.

FAILURE TO DO SO COULD RESULT IN YOU BEING EXCLUDED FROM MY EVENTS IN THE FUTURE.
