Volunteers Needed
Volunteers perform all of the work that you've read about here, Our critical needs right now are for food captains, money captains, and for drivers transporting seniors. Please share these needs with your family, friends, and neighbors!
Food Captains - ACCA is looking for food captains to coordinate emergency requests for food with drivers who deliver groceries to needy clients within its service area.
Food captains receive requests from County and Inova social workers and then schedule drivers to deliver food to homes, coordinating with the food pantry. Tasks can be done from home but require use of a computer. Training is provided. Food captains are asked to work one week per quarter. Please contact us and we'll give you the details.
Be a Money Captain! - This role works with social workers to help needy neighbors pay for housing and other essentials. They arrange for payment of rent, utilities, prescriptions and other needs in accordance with ACCA guidelines. Time commitment for this remote role is one week per quarter. Training is provided, background check required. During that week, up to 8 hours work may be required during normal business hours for email and phone calls. Attendance at an annual meeting is required. Contact: volunteers@accacares.org
Drivers - We partner with the Shepherd Center of Annandale/Springfield to provide critical transportation. We urgently need volunteer drivers who drive local seniors in Annandale, Springfield, and sections of Alexandria to medical appointments during the week and grocery shopping on weekends. Even if you have a limited amount of time to volunteer, this is a wonderful way to touch the lives of people who desperately need this service. You determine when, where, and how often you drive.
