Volunteer: Children's Program

Volunteer Presenters for Creative and Life Skills Sessions
We are looking for volunteers who enjoy engaging with youth in meaningful, imaginative, and authentic ways. Presenters will work with either the 6–12 age group or the 13–18 age group, and they can choose to stay with one group or rotate between both.

These volunteers should feel comfortable tapping into their playful and creative side. The children come to our program right after school, so it’s important that the sessions do not feel like more classroom time. Presenters should design activities that are fun, expressive, relatable, and relevant to what the children are experiencing in their lives, especially as many of them are navigating the challenges of transitional housing.

The goal is to create a safe and inspiring space where children can open up, connect with one another, and explore new ideas and skills that help them imagine possibilities beyond their current circumstances. I am absolutely happy to support volunteers as they get comfortable, but it is important that they bring enthusiasm, creativity, and a genuine willingness to engage with the youth.

Weekly Program Volunteers for Thursday Evenings
We also need volunteers who can support our program consistently on Thursdays from 7:00 to 8:30 PM. These volunteers will assist the presenter for the evening, help guide and encourage the children, and support the overall flow of the classroom.

Volunteers may participate every Thursday or twice a month based on their schedule, and can work with the 6–12 group, the 13–18 group, or both.

Volunteer: Delivery Confirmation Caller

These volunteers support the Fresh Produce Program by calling and texting between 5-10 participants between Monday and Wednesday each week to confirm their upcoming Saturday deliveries. An email with instructions is sent to all volunteers at the beginning of each week. Volunteers have the assistance of a script and FAQ document to successfully complete calls. This role is KEY for making sure deliveries get to the right people/places, and helping us stay in touch with the households we serve. Relationship building is encouraged!

We ask that volunteers sign up for one semester or summer of delivery confirmation calling at a time. It is not required that callers sign up to volunteer as a Delivery Confirmation Caller every week during that period, but at least once every 2-3 weeks is encouraged.

IMPORTANT: We manage volunteer sign-ups outside of HandsOn Triangle.  If you would like to sign up to be a Delivery Confirmation Caller, and are prepared to do so for a full semester or summer, please email Elliot at elliot.yoon@duke.edu. One-hour caller training, as well as a short online HIPAA training, is required.

Volunteer: Delivery Driver

These volunteers will pick up produce bags from Uncle Harry's General Store (1925 Yearby Ave, Durham, NC 27705) on Saturdays between 9:30 AM and 10:30 AM at their chosen time and deliver these items to participant homes. Driving may be up to a 2-hour commitment (eg, someone who picks up at 10:00 AM should plan to finish by 12:00 PM at the latest).

We routinely need 15-20 drivers to serve ~175 households each week. In order for us to generate driving routes based on an accurate headcount of drivers for the week, we ask that you sign up no later than 5 PM the day before distribution. Once routes are generated, an email with instructions will be sent to all volunteers within a few hours of their pick-up time. The more people who sign up, the quicker the routes are for everyone! We encourage you to bring along a friend for this role! Driving is much more fun with a buddy, who can help call participants to let them know that their delivery is on the way. HIPAA training required! Please see the google sheet below for more information on HIPPA. 

IMPORTANT: We manage volunteer sign-ups on a Google Sheet outside of HandsOn Triangle. Please click here for instructions and to sign up! If the volunteer opportunity you are interested in has no open slots left, please consider signing up for a different day or role!

Volunteer: Litter Pickup

Looking for a low-pressure, come-as-you-are way to make a real difference in the Coats community? Coats Municipal Park could use a little extra love, and Campbell students are invited to help keep our green spaces clean and welcoming for everyone.
This is a flexible, self-led volunteer opportunity with no set schedule, no sign-ups, no formal event. If you find yourself with a free hour between classes or want a quick way to give back, simply stop by the park at any time that works for you. Bring a friend or fly solo, take a walk, and help pick up litter along the pathways, fields, and play areas. Every small effort adds up, and your time directly supports a cleaner, safer space for families, pets, and visitors.
Gloves and trash bags are encouraged; filled bags can be placed next to any park trash can for staff to remove. Whether you swing by once or make it part of your weekly routine, your help strengthens the community in a big way.
Thank you for stepping up and showing what it means to care for your town one piece of litter at a time.
