Volunteer Opportunities

The Material Resources Warehouse has an ongoing need for Volunteers to assist with the processing and quality control of Health/Hygiene Kits as well as processing of additional donated items such as School Kits, Baby Kits & Layettes, or soaps and cleaning supplies. Seasonal help is needed with unloading of boxcars and trailers.

Volunteers typically stand, or sit depending on the job. Most work is done in a temperature controlled work area. Modest, comfortable clothing and low-heel shoes should be worn. The area allows for a maximum of 25 volunteers. Volunteer hours are between 7:30 a.m. & 4:00 p.m. Mon-Fri. Groups as well as individuals are welcome. A signed permission form is required for youth volunteers between 14 & 18 and need to come with adult supervision. To arrange volunteer time please contact the New Windsor Conference Center office at 410-635-8700. Persons working six or more hours per day are provided a free lunch. Those working less than six hours are asked to contribute to the cost of lunch.
