SpanishVolunteer at The Giving Factory
Update on COVID-19: Please make sure to read our new COVID-19 donation guidelines and other precautionary measures we have implemented.
At Cradles to Crayons, we believe that one day every child will have the essentials they need to feel safe, warm, ready to learn, and valued.
As a volunteer at C2C, together we fulfill this vision and can make sure Chicagoland’s most under-served kids have everything they need to thrive—at home, at school, and at play.
Our volunteers—both adults and children—power our mission. When you volunteer with us, you join thousands of service-oriented individuals who have already made a significant impact in our community.
Interested in bringing the volunteer experience of The Giving Factory to your work place? Let us know in the ‘Accommodations’ section. With Giving Factory @ Work, we can have your company’s employees volunteer at your building.
We cannot wait to host you at The Giving Factory!
Our top priority is to always keep our staff, volunteers, and the families we serve safe. We have instituted new safety guidelines for the warehouse and ask that interested community members please review them here before volunteering with us.
Before You Volunteer
As a volunteer at the Giving Factory, you will help us inspect and sort donations for quality to distribute to the children we serve.
Please review our safety guidelines before you volunteer:
