Support Nonprofits Impacted by COVID-19

Nonprofits impacted by COVID are in need of volunteers. At this time, nonprofits serving people experiencing homelessness, both large and small, have identified a number of immediate and long-term needs for volunteers in variety of roles, such as preparing food, distributing supplies to clients, supporting custodial needs, and general support at the shelters.

If you are young, healthy and showing no signs or symptoms of the virus, providers, both large and small, need volunteers to help to prepare meals, distribute supplies and help keep our shelter facilities clean and safe for our guests and workers.

Requirements

Wondering if you should register to volunteer? Based on the CDC guidelines, we are asking you the following questions:

Have you or someone in your household traveled to a country on the CDC’s Level 3 watch list in the last 30 days? At this time, these include China, Iran, Italy and South Korea. These may change. See the CDC’s guidelines for the most up-to-date list.
Have you been exposed to someone who has been diagnosed with COVID-19? See the CDC’s risk assessment guidance.
Do you have symptoms consistent with COVID-19? Symptoms can include a fever, cough or shortness of breath. See the CDC’s symptom information.

If you answered “yes’ to any of those questions, we ask you not to register. We are doing all we can to align with best practices and keep our community healthy. If you have questions, please contact us at volunteer@unitedwaydenver.org
