Make volunteering a part of your 2023 plans

If you or your family has made a New Year’s resolution to get more involved in the community, Catholic Charities has a number of volunteer opportunities to help you achieve your goal.

Opportunities range from clerical work to manual labor to providing in-shelter childcare. Some assignments offer direct interaction with clients and others are more behind the scenes. Assignments are made based on a prospective volunteer’s preferences and availability.

One immediate need is for a volunteer truck driver for Our Daily Bread Food Pantry. There is an opening for a regular Tuesday morning driver, as well as openings for substitute drivers as needed on Tuesdays, Wednesdays or Thursdays.

Truck drivers use Catholic Charities’ vehicles and equipment to pick up food orders from the Kansas Food Bank and deliver them to Our Daily Bread on S. Hillside.
