Toy Inventory Volunteer
♡ SaveAbout this opportunity
Volunteers are needed to work with the public library on our toy distribution and circulation program. These volunteers will go to the library 1-2 times per week to check the toys that have been returned to the library. They will check to make sure no toys are missing or broken, and to clean toys as needed so they can be checked out again by another family.We are additionally in need of volunteers to host donation events for families to come bring their toys to donate to the library.We also need volunteers to help create the toy catalog. This includes visiting the library to take pictures of the toys, uploading those pictures to the online catalog, printing the catalog and distributing copies to the different branches of the Miami Dade public library.
