The DeKalb County Salvation Army is looking for volunteers for the following events:

Toy Shop – Our Toy Shop to provide toys to families in DeKalb county runs next week (December 14 – 18) from 9 am – 4 pm. In order to maintain safety protocols and social distancing, we have spread this event from 2 days to 5 and expanded the room space used. Everyone is required to wear a mask and gloves. Volunteers are paired with a parent to take them “shopping” for gifts for their children by choosing from the generous toy donations received.

Set up for Toy Shop – Friday and Saturday. Volunteers are needed Friday (any time) or Saturday (9 am – 12 pm) to sort toys by age and set up in preparation for the family event next week.

Food packing – Each family (there are more than 650 families who have signed up) will receive a food box in addition to their gifts. Volunteers are needed to pack these boxes and pass them out to families in their car (it’s a drive up) throughout the week of December 14 – 18.

Red Kettle – if you haven’t already signed up to ring bells, its not too late! Log onto www.registertoring.com and enter in your zip code. Locations and available times will show up and you can choose what works best for you.
