Driver Volunteer (On-Call or Regularly Scheduled available!)
We are seeking all-stars to help support our services to families.
We have several driving positions open! For our on-call driver positions, volunteers are contacted on an as-needed basis (once a month or so) to fill in for RMHC supply runs, dinner pick-up from local restaurants, family grocery shuttle runs, and RMHC field trips using an RMHC vehicle. On-call volunteers do not need to be available for every call, but should generally be free for some evenings and/or weekends. For our weekly or monthly driving positions, volunteers are scheduled to come in the same day and time of each week/month.
