About The Position

SBCS (formerly South Bay Community Services) transforms communities to support the well-being and prosperity of children, youth, and families.

SBCS receives all types of donations-- clothes, furniture, toys, books, hygiene products, brand new unsold merchandise, etc. Our dedicated warehouse staff go through donations and organize a “boutique” for families to find necessary items. This includes staging items and making the space welcoming. To support this program, we are looking for 1 long-term volunteer to help inspect, sort and process incoming donations on Wednesdays from 9 a.m. - 2 p.m.
