Youth Volunteer Corps - Volunteering with the Salvation Army
Description:
Youth Volunteer Corps (YVC) will be helping the Salvation Army fulfill their mission of "Doing the Most Good". Volunteers will help with a painting project. Other tasks projects may include working in the food pantry, sorting donations and landscaping.
YVC projects engage teams of 8-10 youth ages 11-18 who volunteer their time to help local nonprofits and learn more about real issues in their communities. A trained and screened adult staff member supervises youth, leads them in icebreakers and team building activities, and facilitates meaningful reflection.
