Volunteer Policies
Village Project is grateful for your willingness to serve as a volunteer. Each volunteer position is highly valued. Your help allows us to meet our mission of coming together as a community to provide nourishing meals and extended support to families fighting cancer.
In order to operate effectively, we ask that volunteers follow the following guidelines:
Volunteer Attendance - If for some reason you are not able to work as scheduled, please sign into Better Impact and remove yourself from the schedule.
Volunteer Paperwork - During orientation, you will receive a medical release and consent form to fill out. Specific volunteer roles may require further documentation such as: driver's license, proof of insurance, and background check.
Volunteer Culture - We seek to provide a safe, happy, and positive environment for all volunteers. Please be respectful of the VP facility, equipment, and all those involved in our organization.
The following requirements must be followed while working in the kitchen:
- Closed-toed shoes must be worn at all times.
- Long hair must be securely pulled back.
- Hair must be covered with a hair net, bandana, or hat
- Hands must be washed thoroughly when entering or re-entering the kitchen.
In addition, cell phones are not permitted in the kitchen and we ask that you do not volunteer if you are ill.
