SUMMARY:Serving Dinner at the Denver Rescue Mission!
DESCRIPTION:Serving Dinner at the Denver Rescue Mission\, Tues. March 28th\, 4:30-6:30PM\, 5 Volunteers are needed. We will be serving dinner to the homeless in their Downtown facility. They do have two free parking areas for the volunteers.  For some of the guests\, the meals they serve at the Mission are the only source of nutrition they receive.  They say that “with each healthy meal comes strength to face the new challenges of each day.”  They serve over 600\,000 meals to the hungry each year.  We have helped them several times before. They do follow COVID guidelines to be sure it is a safe experience and volunteers do need to have been vaccinated and wear a mask.  The volunteers truly find this to be a worthwhile cause & enjoy the experience!

SUMMARY:Personal Prom Dress Shoppers at Bella Boutique!
DESCRIPTION:Personal Free Prom Dress Shoppers at Bella Boutique\, Sat. March 18\, 9AM-12:30PM\, 5 Volunteers are needed.  We will be Personal Shoppers who are each matched with a high school student.  Together each volunteer will help them shop the racks to find the perfect look for their prom.  Once the student has selected a dress\, you may shop together for shoes and accessories.  Bella Boutique helps low-income students so that they do not look “low income” and are able to attend their prom\, which is such an important event at their age.  We will receive training on the layout of the store so we know where everything is and will all wear black so the students are the focus while having the shopping experience.  This event is in SW Denver.  This is a very worthy non profit that stresses:  “Equity\, dignity\, inclusion — it matters!”  We have helped them several times and our volunteers always love this event!

This facility is trying to keep everything safe for volunteers.  Each volunteer should wear a mask.  Gloves will be provided. All volunteers must have been vaccinated!  We will be behind the counter & plexi-glass when serving food and there are sinks for handwashing and sanitizer. The last time we were there during this pandemic time\, they were using disposable dishes and utensils\, most the residents then ate in their rooms instead of the dining room and they had an extra table in front of the food line to keep everyone 6 ft. apart.
