Volunteer: Create Christmas Bags

Do you know how to sew? We need your help in sewing Christmas bags for the young adults we serve at Covenant House Alaska. We use these bags to help us organize Christmas gifts for about 200 youth. Not only is the bag helpful for us, it becomes a gift in itself that youth can use as a laundry bag all year round. In fact, MACK House, our program housing youth 13-17 years old, has requested them now so youth can pack up their belongings to move to a foster home. So much better than a plastic trash bag!

We're looking for a suggested size of 24"W x 30" L bag with a drawstring top. Some bags with a more flexible fabric would help to accommodate large boxes. A variety of fun fabrics helps us to personalize things; especially patterns that are gender-neutral. We'd like to receive these bags by December 18th for Christmas use butt can use them all year long as well.

This job takes place at the Pantry on delivery days beginning. Once you have the list of families for the day, pack bags of groceries according to our preset guidelines. You will have no more than 20 orders to pack.
Divide the load so each driver will have an equal number of deliveries using a general east/west distinction. Restock the shelves, remove trash and recycle cardboard as needed. This is a great job for 2 or more people working together.
