Day Center Volunteer Sign Up

I organized the nursing room's braces, slings, and foot products.

I helped put away Whole Foods food donations and continued to organize the nurse's supply closet.

It's been a while since I'd volunteered at the 7hills Homeless Shelter. I sorted through the bags of donated items (clothes, shoes, cups, etc.) and did laundry. After that, I did my favorite part which was cleaning and organizing the clothing room. I also helped a couple of people find outfits to wear, which is always a nice experience. I enjoy being able to help and make an impact!

Today at 7hills I helped in both the clothing room and the sorting room. Whenever I got there the clothing room was a bit of a mess. There was a lot of clothes off hangers and sticking out. I spent about an hour in here just going through and reorganizing things. While I was in there a lot of people were coming in and out just getting new outfits. After I was done in the clothing room, I moved onto the sorting room. Here I went through donations and separated items into winter and summer clothing. The clothes that were for summer time I hung up and put on racks to be added into the clothing room. The clothes that were more winter style like coats, long sleeve shirts, and heavy pants I put into a trash bag to be put in storage for next Winter. I was sorting clothes for about an hour and was able to make a big dent in donations and get a lot of good items out on the floor. I am so thankful to be able to help this organization.

It was a great experience again to see what 7 hills is doing for the homeless community. I got to be of assistance to Kim while volunteering and help out with the efficiency of operations while I was there.
