Non Certified Volunteer Projects:

• Call Lush 415-921-5874 the guy who works there hooks us up every year.
• Request a donation of up to 75 bath bombs or soaps or whatever they can give. Needed by Valentines Day 2010
• If they have something to offer soon, pick up and bring back to office when it’s ready.
• Cut out leaves for training tree. Ask Teresa or Evelyn where the leaves are.
• Outreach for January training.
• Print posters. Cut the info strips. Careful they often don’t line up when you try to cut multiple at once.
• Print ¼ page flyers, cut them up with the paper cutter.
• Put up posters, hand out fliers.
• For posters, esp hit TWB: all women bathroom doors at eye height when people are sitting on the toilet, 1 in elevator, front door of building, elevator door(the ones that are propped open) on each floor.
• Target the 5 prioritized communities: marginally housed or homeless women, immigrant women, formerly incarcerated women, young women (20 and under), trans and queer women of color.
• Contact local shops and get $5 and $10 gift cards. No chains. Places where you *could* buy something for $5 or $10. Think: books, groceries, self care(ie: sage, etc…), ice cream, music, video rental, guest passes to a gym or pool, movie theater ($10), game store (just awesome, mention Isaak), (peasant pies), arts/crafts places (flax)
• We go through a ton of these every year so try to get 80+ of these certificates.
• Volunteer Archive Cabinet:
• Files are currently in 2 drawers, spread it out down into the drawer beneath as well.
• Re-label all of the volunteer folders: color code labels alphabetically:
• Ie: A: pink, B: orange, C: blue, D: green… then cycle back through the colors for the next 4 letters.
• Label each hanging file folder with a colored tab that says the letter that the folder contains. Ie: “A” highlighted pink to keep with the color scheme.
• Alphabetize all of the volunteer files into these files by last name.
• Ie: Macedo comes before Martyny… Please don’t just put all the A’s together. Organize files within each letter alphabetically as well.
• Got experience with design? Design our new blog. Similar to our main site in color scheme, but with a volunteer program twist. Contact Teresa for support.
