Do not worry about being an expert in building, you will learn everything you need to know by working with staff and experienced volunteers. Volunteers should be comfortable using the tools and lumber needed to make a raised garden bed and must be willing to meet staff at a recipient’s home. 

To make the program accessible to all, Inter-Faith Food Shuttle has a pay-what-you-can policy with a minimum contribution from individuals and families receiving boxes.  This means that as a volunteer you MIGHT assist with a build for someone who is able to pay which means that you are supporting an effort that extends the reach of the program to someone who cannot pay.

Volunteers must be 16 or older to volunteer with a required ratio of 1 adult to 4 youth.

Overview

Every weekday from 10am-3pm, Reality Ministries welcomes between 25-35 adults with intellectual & developmental disabilities into our community center for a day of programs and activities: exercise, games, arts & crafts, lunch, Bible study, field trips, and more. We also ask Volunteers to join us in our evening groups Monday, Tuesday and Thursday evenings from 6:30 to 8. Reality sends about four mailings a year. When we send these we need volunteers to help label, stuff, and seal. We generally have a three hour block of time to complete each of these mailings. Volunteers are a crucial presence at Reality through their commitment to building lasting friendships with participants. The hope of these weekly gatherings is to create a meaningful and fun atmosphere for people of all abilities to come together in friendship. It is important to note: Reality Ministries is not a place where volunteers come to do for people with disabilities, rather, it is a place where volunteers come alongside participants to be with them in relationship.

National Emergency Child Care Network is a 501(c)(3) tax-exempt public charity in Durham, North Carolina that provides free child care services to families who are experiencing an crisis or disaster. Our mission is to ensure every family has equal opportunity to access and utilize free emergency child care during a crisis or disaster. 

We are recruiting Durham-based SENIOR volunteers to help local families who are in crisis or disasters. We've already helped (3) families in Durham with over 20 hours of free child care, families that desperately needed help and support. NEXT STEP: Please let us know which training you want to attend. All trainings are listed on our website under Volunteer Now: https://emergencychildcare.org/contact-2/

In only 5 months since the program was activated during Hurricane Helene recovery efforts, 115 Emergency Child Care Volunteers across 2 states (North Carolina and California) have provided 713 hours and 74 days of free emergency child care to 82 children and 50 families (96% in North Carolina). We now have over 400 volunteers registered to become active volunteers. All volunteers undergo trauma-informed training in Psychological First Aid, extensive vetting, and nationwide background checks to ensure they are qualified and screened to care for children. On average, our volunteers are activated 1-3 times per week to help families requesting emergency child care in North Carolina and California.

Our families really need you!! Please join our amazing group of volunteers. 

We will provide volunteers with trauma training for children in disasters. We also provide you with a backpack of fun toys, reading books, coloring books and puzzles to play with the children. This is one-on-one child care so volunteers will need to be 18 and older and have reliable transportation. Skilled and trained volunteers are dispatched immediately after the family calls the crisis line for emergency child care services.

Volunteer child care providers will meet families at a disaster shelter, at the family's home, or where the disaster has occurred to ensure the safety and well-being of the children. While children are safe with a child care provider, the family has the time to deal with the crisis. This support, in result, reduces high levels of stress for the family, as well as the potential for violence, abuse, or neglect to the child during a crisis.

Child care after a disaster is a critical part of response and recovery. Studies have shown that children who have experienced trauma from disasters need extra time with caregivers to ask questions to understand the crisis, to talk about their experience, be listened to, have their feelings accepted, provided with a space to cry and express feelings, have special one-on-one playtime and extra attention, do something relaxing or fun, and feel safe, cared for, and loved (Helping Children and Youth Cope in the Aftermath of Disasters, SAMHSA). WHY THIS IS SO IMPORTANT Disasters are upsetting experiences for everyone involved, but especially for children. Disasters can leave children feeling frightened, confused, and insecure. Children may respond to disaster by demonstrating fears, sadness, or behavioral problems. Younger children may return to earlier behavior patterns, such as bedwetting, sleep problems and separation anxiety. Older children may also display anger, aggression, school problems or withdrawal. With so many natural disasters occurring today, and now the increase in school shootings, children are seeing and experiencing things they should not have to - being evacuated, seeing injured or dying people or animals, losing their home and belongings, losing immediate access to basic needs, being injured themselves, and feeling that their own lives are threatened. Children and families also suffer from post-disaster ongoing stress which includes transitional housing, living in shelters or hotels, losing contact with their friends and neighbors, losing things that are important to them, parental job loss, and the financial costs of reestablishing their previous living conditions. Children’s ability to cope with disaster or emergencies is often tied to the way parents cope. And, when parents are overwhelmed, sad, depressed, emotional, stressed and panicked, the children will not have the emotional care they need to heal. We can help children and families better cope when we provide them with social support systems such as free immediate child care when they need it most. Our program also brings incredible value to the volunteer care givers.

Covid-19 brought to light the heartbreaking extent of food insecurity in our community. Iglesia Emanuel, together with a large group of dedicated volunteers, has responded to this challenge with a weekly food pantry, providing large boxes and bags of nutritious and culturally appropriate food. Volunteers work in 2-hour shifts, Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays, making it possible for us to serve over 600 families a week. Students aged 14 and up are welcome to volunteer on their own. Children aged 10 and up are welcome to volunteer under the supervision of a parent or other accompanying adult. Volunteers need to be over 18 for traffic control positions.

In addition to volunteering on site, you can help support this ministry by donating shelf stable food or bags of rice and beans. We always need more protein items (canned chicken, tuna, or peanut butter), cereal, and other nutritious food to complement the fresh produce that we give. 

See sign-up genius for volunteer dates and times.

We're looking for enthusiastic volunteers of all biking abilities and gender identities to lead our easy-to-follow curriculum. Groups meet once a week across Raleigh, Durham, Cary and the surrounding area. Email info@girlsingear.org for more information about specific locations.

Neither coaching nor biking experience is required. All you need to bring is your most joyful and dynamic self - we'll provide the rest. All coaches receive training and are supported by staff throughout their volunteer experience. We supply all lesson plans and coaching materials.

We teach life skills through bike skills for girls ages 5+. We find bikes to be an extraordinary tool for change in ourselves and our communities as a conduit for lessons on kindness, compassion, and inner strength. We do this through age-appropriate comprehensive curriculums that weave together social-emotional learning (SEL) with bike handling skills. Our no-questions-asked scholarship policy means that everyone can ride with us.

Each lesson has a theme that ties together the opening conversation, connections to biking, and a skill-building section. In this environment, conversations on asking for help lead to understanding how to change gears on a bicycle; resilience and grit are framed around what to do if you fall off your bicycle; and assertive communication opens up a lesson on hand-signaling while riding.

Learn more about getting involved in your community at: girlsingear.org/northcarolina.
