Create Greeting Cards & Placemats

HOME/VIRTUAL OPPORTUNITY

Create and decorate greeting cards or placemats for holidays, birthdays or just for an encouraging message to go along with our home-delivered meals. Use your creativity, some paper and any other art supplies (crayons, markers, stickers) to decorate. Send or drop off completed greeting cards directly to:
8561 N. 61st. Ave Glendale, AZ 85302
Please remember to make your cards general enough so they will suit any recipient.

Group Volunteer Opportunities

Groups can empower the work that YWCA does to create positive change. Group opportunities are based on the highest area of need at the time of volunteer service. Companies and clubs are welcome to host donation drives for necessary items for our home-delivered meals clients. If your group has a special talent that partners well with our programs, please reach out to hello@ywcaaz.org.

Community Center Volunteer

IN-PERSON OPPORTUNITY

Assist at our senior community center in Glendale to help the flow of delivering meals. From building snack bags to helping load/unload deliveries to lending a hand in the kitchen, we could use your help feeding our older adults! Food handlers certificate is required. This opportunity is available mornings Monday-Friday.

Financial Education Instructor

VIRTUAL & IN-PERSON OPPORTUNITY

Facilitate our financial education workshops to empower women to be financially independent. We have various classes with different needs of expertise. Our curriculum covers saving, budgeting, understanding credit and debt, insurance, and homeownership. Instructors use our planned curriculum and personal experience to teach.

Community Ambassador

We can’t do this work alone. YWCA Metropolitan Phoenix receives opportunities to be in the community through tabling events. Community ambassadors are prepared and ready to represent YWCA at a booth or table by sharing information about our mission and programs and handing out YW merchandise and flyers. Opportunities are available for sign up through our volunteer portal.

Decorate Snack Bags
