OMAHA, Neb. (KMTV) — A press release from Salvation Army announced it is looking for more volunteers for its Christmas Assistance registration events.
See the rest of the press release below:
For the first time in three years, The Salvation Army is resuming in-person registration for its Christmas Assistance (toy giveaway) programs. Starting November 1 and going through November 11, Christmas Assistance registration events will be taking place at various Salvation Army community centers around Omaha. Many volunteers will be needed to staff these events.
Specifically, we need welcoming-crew volunteers to greet families in need as they arrive at our community centers; plus, we need application-intake volunteers to work the check-in tables there, guide people through the application process, explain the various assistance-program options, and more.
