Volunteers 14 and older are needed at Crossroads Urban Center to sort, transport, and stock donation items in the thrift store, and accept, sort, and stock food for the pantry. Volunteers are also needed during the legislative session to work on issues at the legislature.
It taught me the reality of poverty. I saw single mothers come in with their kids and plead for help. Because of those experiences, I have been more grateful for the blessings I have been given and more mindful of helping others. - Robert Beck, Sandy, Utah

I volunteered at the crossroads thrift store at 1385 W. Indiana Avenue. Vira and KC are both awesome people to work with, and the work is consistent and self-directed, maybe a little isolated though (unideal). Its awesome to be able to help people in the Glendale-area community. I enjoyed directing the counter and the free room.
