Join us on August 3 and 4 as we sort school supplies that have been graciously donated to help students in Douglas County.
You can sign up for a specific shift at https://www.volunteerdouglascounty.org/manager/need/edit/?need_id=609954
After all of the tabling and donating we are ready to pack the school supplies and get them to the students of Douglas County! Volunteers are needed to sort and pack supplies so that they can be delivered to the elementary schools.
