Volunteer

Interested in making a difference?

We offer several volunteer opportunities throughout the year. At our events, volunteers accept, sort and pack items for shipment, as well as help load and unload trucks. They help us sort our storage unit and transport items to other nonprofits. They do everything.

Interested? Volunteer opportunities are listed below. If you don’t see any, we’re likely planning our next one. In the meantime, subscribe to our email newsletter to be notified when new volunteer opportunities arise.

We’re also interested in your skillsets! We regularly have “office” volunteer opportunities. (That’s what we’re calling non-event work .) We’d love to learn about what you’d like to contribute or even just your professional feedback on what we can do better. If you have a moment, tell us about yourself on our volunteer information form or drop us an email at volunteers@reducewastechicago.org and say hi!

However you’d like to volunteer, you will feel the satisfaction of knowing you’ve made a difference.
