SUPPOrT US
Support from our generous volunteers through the opportunities listed below is a dynamic part of Optimum Path’s ability to live out our mission and vision. Please take the time to support various initiatives and, in turn, make a difference in the lives of our young adults. As a Supervised Independent Living Agency, opportunities to deliver donations directly to our clients are restricted. For coordination of donations, reach out to our Program Director, Rachel Weller, at rweller@optimumpathsil.com for further details.
INDIVIDUAL VOLUNTEER OPPORTUNITIES
Optimum Path Volunteers: Throughout the year, Optimum Path has special projects that require volunteer help. Examples include envelope stuffing, organizing donations, tying ribbons for awareness and the like. These volunteers help fulfill needs as they arise and have no continued time commitments. We need volunteers to help us sort, organize, and prepare the gifts we receive to deliver to our young adults in the program. The opportunity to serve is available on an ongoing basis.
Host an Event: Many of our generous supporters can choose to host their annual events in honor of Optimum Path by requesting in-kind gifts as “tickets” to attend, asking for financial gifts at the event, or by donating the proceeds of their event to Optimum Path.
VOLUNTEER GUIDELINES
Requirements: To volunteer in an ongoing capacity, we require each potential volunteer to complete an application, interview, clear a criminal back (including fingerprinting), and have three letters of reference. Once all these steps are complete, each volunteer will complete “Optimum Volunteer” training. If you are interested in any of these volunteer opportunities or an internship, please contact Rachel Weller via email at rweller@optimumpathsil.com.
