Christmas Bureau is a program that provides food and gifts to families in need over the holiday season.
The Intake Volunteer Opportunity is an in-person volunteer opportunity. Volunteers will report to Johnston Community Center at 2021 SE Market St, Topeka KS to complete their volunteer shift.
For this volunteer opportunity individuals are responsible for meeting with individual clients to help process the Intake Form for Christmas Bureau. You will need to be able to verify all required documentation of every client and make sure that every Intake Form is legible and complete. You will also need to make sure clients are eligible by income verification to ensure we are serving those who need the help the most. Sometimes this means you will need to turn people away should their income exceed the 200% Federal Poverty level limit.
Individuals must complete the confidentiality waiver before they can participate in this volunteer opportunity.
All Intake Volunteers will be required to complete a training to review the intake process, this training will be hybrid at the United Way Topeka office and via Zoom on Friday, 10/24 from 10-11:30 am. If you sign up after this date, email mhanson@uwkawvalley.org to receive the recording.
