Host a Drive Coordinator Role is an important part of building a community partnership between individuals, churches, organizations and businesses to meet the needs of the clients of Mercy Mall.
In this role, a volunteer will manage the scheduling of drives, communicate with individuals and groups that wish to host a drive and build relationships with new and prospective community partners. THIS IS A BIG DEAL!
History Moment: We created Host a Drive after the Covid-19 pandemic closed down our donations center. We had to create a new way to receive donations. So we put our thinking caps on and our praying hands together and BOOM, BANG, BOP..... we figured it out! We'll just ask people we know to ask their friends, neighbors and families to donate stuff to them and then they can bring it over when done collecting. Host a Drive was born!!
As the volunteer coordinator of Drives...you will spend your time on spreadsheets, emails, and working alongside other Team members to continue to receive goods, to build connections and grow our reach in the community! This role doesn't require the coordinator to physically receive each drive...but to handle the responsibility of organizing them! You will also work to organize our On the Move box truck donation drives alongside our Dispatcher and On-site volunteer for those events! So many fun possibilities in this role!
