Register for Family Volunteer Days
Global Links, a Pittsburgh-based humanitarian aid organization, announces Family Volunteer Days, where families with children of all ages can work together in a supportive, safe and educational environment sorting and preparing equipment for donation. Participants learn how the materials they are preparing provide life-giving – and in many cases life-saving – treatment, support and comfort to vulnerable individuals, and to those living in areas hit by natural disasters.
Shifts are available from 10 a.m. to noon or from 1 to 3 p.m. on the following Saturdays: Nov. 18, Dec. 9 and Dec. 16.
Registration is required, as space is limited. A donation of $10 per person helps Global Links offset the cost of sending these items where they are needed most. To learn about financial assistance for this event, available through UPMC, email sbodow@ loballinks.org.
Family Volunteer Days take place at Global Links headquarters, 700 Trumbull Drive, Green Tree, To register, visit www.globallinks.org/volunteer/family-volunteer-days. For more information, call Stacy Bodow, community engagement manager, at 412-361-3424 ext. 205.
