Serve with us to bring the love of God to those who are poor and suffering.
This year the Notre Dame Club of Austin is partnering with the St. Vincent de Paul - Diocesan Council of Austin to serve those in need at their Food Pantry and Thrift Store. The Society of St. Vincent de Paul is a network of friends, growing in holiness and building a more just world through personal relationships with and service to people in need.
We are offering multiple shifts to allow ND volunteers to find the time and activities which are a best fit for them. Volunteers* should wear comfortable clothes that are OK to get dirty and ALL must wear sturdy CLOSE-TOED shoes. (*Youth age 11-17 are welcome to volunteer with their parent or adult guardian.)
The Food Pantry Early Shift will work from 7:30AM - 9:30AM.
Food pantry volunteers will help our neighbors fill out assistance paperwork, navigate our client-choice food pantry and select items via thrift store vouchers for clothing and household goods. May also include stocking and inventory tasks. Great hands-on opportunity for those interested in direct client services.
The Food Pantry Regular Shift will work from 9:00AM - 11:30AM.
The Thrift Store AM Shift will work from 9:30AM - 12:00PM.
Thrift Store volunteers may assist with many daily tasks including warehouse sorting, cleaning, organizing, and/or pricing. This is truly charity in action. It is a great opportunity to serve and give back to the community behind the scenes, putting your hearts and hands to work for those in need.
The Thrift Store PM Shift will work from 1:30PM - 4:00PM.
