Opportunities From: Volunteers United

We have delivery driver opportunities for our Meals on Wheels program in Sussex. Drivers deliver meals to homebound individuals unable to prepare meals for themselves. Receiving these meals assures these seniors proper nutrition as well as the independence to remain in their own homes. It also provides a daily check-in and gives these seniors human contact and a smile. We ask drivers to volunteer once a week Monday - Friday, no major holidays between the hours of 11:00 a.m. - 1:15 p.m. Schedules are flexible and mileage reimbursement is available.

Join Independence First to support seniors in our community through the Food Distribution Program with Hunger Task Force! Volunteers will load food items or boxes of food into seniors' cars in an outdoor drive-through on Friday, October 17 from 10-11am. This event is a quick and easy way to help provide fresh, healthy, and shelf-stable food to seniors in the Milwaukee Area. If you sign up as a group, you may stay after the event for an optional, private tour of Independence First to learn about universal design and our programs and services.

Independence First is a nonprofit and Independent Living Center dedicated to empowering individuals with disabilities to live independently in the community. We are a scent-free facility for the safety and comfort of those with chemical sensitivities. We ask that guests refrain from wearing perfume, cologne, and other scented products at agency-sponsored events.

Become a Certified Children's Vision Screener! Help us identify children with potential vision problems and set them on the road to healthy vision through children's vision screenings in your community.

Founded in 1958 by a group of dedicated volunteers, Prevent Blindness Wisconsin's mission is to prevent blindness and preserve sight in Wisconsin communities. We envision a Wisconsin where everyone enjoys a lifetime of healthy vision and we work toward this goal by providing free, direct sight-saving services, such as vision screenings, throughout the state. 

Volunteers help with vision screenings at schools and childcare centers throughout greater Milwaukee & Waukesha County that otherwise do not have the capacity to screen the children at their schools and centers. All volunteers are required to attend a Prevent Blindness Wisconsin sponsored Children's Vision Screener Training. The training will go over how to vision screen school-age and preschool age children and the last step is to attend a short virtual volunteer orientation. The children’s vision screening certification is good for 3 years. No previous experience with health care or vision screenings is necessary. This is an opportunity for individual adults, teens and small groups (maximum size of 5).   

Volunteers are required to complete and pass a background check and Children’s Vision Screener Training before volunteering. To sign up for our online training, please email Breanna at breanna@pbwi.org for the sign-up link.

Time commitment: Vision screenings typically take place on weekday mornings. Depending on classroom size, screenings take between 1 and 3 hours. Vision screenings start in September and go through May. 

Please contact Breanna Reckamp, Director of Operations, at breanna@pbwi.org or (414) 765-0505 to learn more and to sign up for a vision screener training.

Help a child shop and/or wrap and bag their perfect gifts for a special person or persons in their life. It's a heart warming experience! Please note: As part of our Child Protection Policies we will ask Individual Volunteers to complete a background check and volunteer application prior to volunteering.

ABOUT THE ANGEL SHOP: 

Purpose:  To allow children to be part of and develop the spirit of giving. Students in programs like these gain a true sense of pride and accomplishment from choosing a gift for another person independently from their family. 

How it works: SJA will collect donations of small gift items year around.

Our Early Childhood & K4-8th students will come in during a scheduled shopping time in December to shop for a gift for someone special in their life. Very young children will be assigned an angel helper to help them find just the right item.

Items will be priced at $1-$3. This allows children to be part of the process and spirit of giving and learn how to purchase items while keeping it very low cost to them.

They will also have the opportunity to wrap their gift on site with a volunteer.

You can make a huge impact supporting our Food Pantry in a very simple way. Are you always on the go, running errands? Do you have a decent-sized vehicle that can carry a few loads? If you have some free time once or twice a week, then you would be a great fit to help us! As MCC’s Food Rescue Driver, you would assist by volunteering for the MCC food pantry team by picking up donations from grocery stores and other retailers. The Food Rescue Drivers utilize their vehicle to pick up food donations from retailers, ensuring good-quality food reaches our neighbors in need.

Do you enjoy making crafts? Can you crochet and/or knit? Turn your hobby into healing by becoming a craft volunteer...all from the comfort of your own home! Heartland Hospice needs more talented craft volunteers to donate items that will bring comfort to patients facing life-limiting illnesses.

The sky's the limit when it comes to what will bring a smile to a patient's face, but some suggestions include: crocheted lap blankets/shawls/slippers, fleece blankets, memory bears, seasonal items, veterans' appreciation items, stuffed animals (teddy bears) or pillows and any other craft item that will brighten a patient's room.

As a proud participant of the We Honor Veterans program, veteran or current military members will have the unique ability to support Heartland Hospice veteran patients through the "vets-for-vets" volunteer opportunity. Heartland Hospice volunteers help to support and enhance the quality of life of those they visit.

All patient visitor volunteers receive training regarding the philosophy of hospice, the role of the volunteer and other staff members, as well as, helpful skills in caring for and communicating with hospice patients and their families. Volunteer hours are flexible and scheduled according to your availability and location.

The vigil volunteer program is designed to keep vigil with patients and families during the dying process. A hospice vigil volunteer is one of Heartland's most special and fulfilling opportunities. Support may involve prayer (reading from the Bible or other material that is comforting for patient), providing respite to family (allowing them to step away and grab a bite to eat/take a break) or simply being present...providing comfort and peace of mind to all that the patient is not alone. Vigil volunteers, in collaboration with the hospice team, can help provide the patient with the most valuable gift - a loving presence. 

Our vigil volunteer program is more of an "on-call" opportunity; vigil support is based upon request of patient's family or care-giving team. Scheduling of vigil takes into consideration the volunteer's location and availability.

Applicants must attend an orientation to learn about the philosophy of hospice, the role of a vigil volunteer, and skills related to caring for and communicating with hospice patients and their families. Emphasis is on providing comfort during the dying process. Requirements for vigil volunteers: 18 years of age or older, complete a TB test, must agree to background and reference check, must be appropriately coping with any personal losses, impeccable communication skills, sound judgment regarding issues of death and dying, and ability to work independently with indirect supervision. Characteristics that Heartland is looking for in a vigil volunteer include: a positive outlook on life, flexibility, empathy, sensitivity to issues around death and dying, compassion, a willingness to help others and ability to work as a member of the hospice team. Reliable transportation is a must!

For more information about fidget tools, visit here: https://www.pinterest.com/sbonham4486/fidget-blankets/.

Items can be dropped off at the Heartland Hospice office, Monday-Friday, from 8AM-5PM. This is your chance to make a BIG difference without even leaving your doorstep! Please contact us if you're interested in donating handmade gifts of comfort to our hospice patients. We're waiting to hear from you!

Waukesha Free Clinic, Wisconsin’s longest-running charitable clinic, is seeking volunteers to support our mission of providing free, high-quality healthcare to uninsured and underserved individuals in Waukesha County.

As a volunteer, you’ll join a dedicated team of providers, interpreters, and students making a real impact—whether you help once a month or once a week. Your clinical skills can make a life-changing difference for patients facing significant barriers to care.

How You’ll Help:

·         The ability to effectively interact with sensitivity with people from diverse cultural, socioeconomic, educational, racial, ethnic, and professional backgrounds, and people of all ages and lifestyles

What We Offer:

What are the requirements:

Current Wisconsin License

Whether you’re retired, working part-time, in between jobs, or simply looking for a way to serve—your time and talents are welcome here.

Must complete general orientation provided on site and participate in on-the-job training provided by staff and/or trained volunteers.

We are currently running quite low on our toys and games that we give to the children of our clients and the CARE center. Your support can make all the difference for the children and families we serve! With your help, we will be able to provide toys for birthdays, holidays, and most importantly, comfort. 

Join us in kicking off the season of caring by helping us provide toys and games to comfort those in need. 

How to Help: 

The easiest way to support is to shop one of our wishlists that deliver these items directly to The Women's Center.

Amazon: https://a.co/d1FXAjq

Or you can shop at any store yourself and hand deliver the toys and games to The Women's Center at 505 N. East Ave., Waukesha, WI.  If you have any questions, would like to drop off a donation, or would like our Toy Drive Wishlist to be sent to you, please contact our Volunteer Coordinator, Alex, at alexandral@twcwaukesha.org. Thank you!

Host a Move-In Kit Drive at your workplace, place of worship, or school and help families moving from homelessness to housing. A Move-In Kit can include:

However, there is no wrong recipe for a Move-In Kit. All household items are welcome and help families establish a fresh start. Please note that Hope House cannot accept furniture or large appliances due to limited capacity.

Why Your Drive Matters

At 6 years old, a significant portion of Brielle’s experience included being homeless. Brielle’s family had been without housing for a year, doubling up with family and friends and when that was no longer an option, staying in emergency shelters before being connected with Hope House and moving into an apartment. Shortly after Brielle’s family moved into the apartment, their Case Manager, Leslie, visited with a move-in kit of household items and cleaning supplies. Something case managers at Hope House can do with the support of your donations.

Brielle excitedly greeted Leslie, gave her a big hug, and as her family went through the supplies, she found the dish detergent and said excitedly, “and now we get to wash our own dishes!” Brielle’s excitement for a task many take for granted is a reminder of the power of your support - providing stability, dignity, and the comfort of home to families.

How to Host a Drive

Hosting a drive is easy and you know your community best. We suggest having solid start and end dates for taking collections, sharing stories like the one above, and leaning into the strengths of your workplace, place of worship, or community. Hope House can provide signs and speak to your group (when available). We do ask that donations be dropped off at Hope House (209 W. Orchard St., Milwaukee, WI) at the end of the drive as we have limited capacity for pick-ups. Schedule drop off in advance and we'll be happy to give you a tour and share more of the amazing work being done together!
