Our mission is to empower and uplift communities through collaborative partnerships, dedicated staff, and impactful programs designed to create positive change.

Volunteer Position Description and Purpose:


At CAPUP, we LOVE volunteers! We are seeking a friendly and engaging volunteer to serve as a Greeter at CAPUP. As a Greeter, you will be the first point of contact for guests, ensuring they feel welcomed and supported. You will also assist with managing the waiting area and help identify any needs our guests may have. We ask that volunteers sign up for at least 2 shifts/month in order to be approved.

Volunteer Duties & Responsibilities:

  • Greet guests warmly upon arrival.

  • Report any immediate needs or concerns from guests to Community Engagement Specialist (Alyssa).
  • Assist with carrying groceries to car.
  • Assist with conducting surveys (occurs 1x/week).

Requirements:

  • Friendly and approachable demeanor.

  • Ability to engage with guests in a compassionate and professional manner.

  • Ability to lift at least 25 lbs. 

Application Steps:

  • Sign up for a slot on CFEngage.
  • Upon signup, you will recieve TWO emails; a confirmation from CFEngage, and an email from the Opportunity Coordinator at "ahammer@capup.org". Specific meeting location and additional instructions will be sent in the SECOND email - be sure to check your SPAM folder if you have not recived it. All volunteers MUST REPLY to that email to confirm participation, to allow for proper planning.
  • Each first-time volunteer will be required to complete a background check prior to arrival. You must submit it to ahammer@capup.org and we must receive the report from the background check before your start date.

Time Commitment:

Volunteers will be expected to work for two and a half hour shifts (for the duration of the food pantry + some prep time before). Your support will directly impact the well-being of our neighbors, and together, we can bring hope and comfort to those who need it most.

Thank you for your consideration in supporting this important initiative! We look forward to partnering with you to uplift our community.
