VOLUNTEER

YOU make a difference in Routt County every time you volunteer at LiftUp. Whether you help sort donations, arrange Thrift Store displays, or stock Food Bank shelves, you are helping your neighbors.

Your service as a volunteer is critical to LiftUp’s programs that provide basic needs while promoting personal growth and self-sustainability. Each year, 1 in 10 Routt County residents access LiftUp services, and volunteers help make that possible. Thank you for caring and giving back to your community!

Here at LiftUp, we strive to nurture an organizational culture that benefits our volunteers as much as it benefits the organization. We value respect, positivity, honestly, generosity and collaboration.

LiftUp offers a variety of ways to serve including regular volunteer shifts, seasonal assistance, and special projects. Check out this list of some of our regular volunteer opportunities:

• Food Bank volunteers help out by assisting clients in need, stocking shelves, and unloading shipments. We also depend on volunteer drivers to pick up donated goods from local markets and stores.
• Donation Center volunteers process all the generous donations from our community. Volunteer service may include receiving, sorting, and pricing donations.
• Thrift Store volunteers assist staff by stocking items, organizing shelves, and displaying goods for sale.
