Glendale Elementary School District Food Distributions
Tuesdays and Wednesdays

Every month, Glendale Elementary School District hold food distributions where they hand out 350+ food boxes to the community. The need for food boxes has increased steadily along with the need for volunteer support to get food to families effectively. There are two opportunities to help with each distribution; one day would be the packing of the food boxes and the following day would be handling the boxes out to the community. Below are the dates for the food distributions. 10-15 volunteers are needed for each volunteer opportunity. To register, please complete the

Opportunities with Partners
Social Spin Foundation
Mondays and Tuesdays
GESD System of Care, 7677 W. Bethany Home Rd
8:45am-1pm
We currently are partnering with Social Spin Foundation to offer laundry services to our neighbors in need. They are in need of consistent volunteers to help them accomplish their mission of promoting clean clothes as a basic human need.
Social Spin Foundation occupies an area on the campus at the GESD System of Care Center, 7677 W. Bethany Home Rd. They operate every Monday and Tuesday from 9am to 1pm. Two volunteers are needed per day to cover the shift of 8:45am-1pm. Volunteers are responsible for having participants sign in, ensure they wash only 2 loads per day, and assist with moving laundry from the washing machine to the dryer if the participant is attending a class or appointment on campus.
If you are interested in volunteering at least once per month, please send an email and we will connect you with the foundation.
