The OrganizationShelter Movers is a national, volunteer-powered charitable organization providing moving and storage services at no cost to individuals and families fleeing abuse. We collaborate with local businesses and community agencies to support people, primarily women and children, as they transition to a life free of violence.Volunteering at Shelter Movers means contributing to a mission that will make a meaningful impact on families experiencing abuse and supporting survivors as they transition to a life free of violence. It also means playing a role in ending gender-based violence. We are growing and looking to add caring, compassionate, and dependable people to our team.The RoleMovers and Drivers are the backbone of the organization, as they carry out the mission on the ground by moving clients’ belongings to safety. In a group of 2-7 movers/drivers, guided by a detailed itinerary, volunteers will load/unload the client’s belongings into a vehicle and transport the client to the predetermined location. Rental vehicles are provided for the move, and movers who have a valid driver’s license are welcome to register as drivers. &nbsp;This is a great opportunity for someone who wants to make a significant impact through volunteering their time in a hands-on capacity for small chunks of time. The duration of each move varies, with an average of about 4-4.5 hours long from the vehicle rental pick-up time. Each move will be characterized based on the risk level and accordingly be escorted by local police, security guards, or neither. Our moves will often entail driving within and sometimes outside of the city. Further information will be shared with volunteers on a per-move basis. With our flexible volunteering model, you can sign up to volunteer on moves according to your availability. Training hosted by professional movers to review proper lifting techniques is hosted every several months, in addition to truck driving lessons.Responsibilities and AccountabilitiesMeet other movers at the arranged time and placeWork under the direction of a volunteer Lead Mover and Move Coordinator, and maintain communication with the Lead Mover and all other movers during moveMove client’s belongings in and out of vehicles, and transport client's personal belongings to a predetermined location&nbsp;Uphold Shelter Movers’ protocols and proceduresSkills and QualificationsPassion for Shelter Movers’ mission of supporting individuals and families experiencing violence and abuseAble to lift moderately heavy boxes/furniture, min 15 lbs.Work well as part of a team and takes direction wellFlexible and adaptable to a change in plansAbility to respect the Client and other Volunteers’ confidentiality&nbsp;Awareness of appropriate boundaries, compassion fatigue, and self-care an assetExperience working with individuals from diverse backgroundsNo previous education is requiredAn interest in the Gender-Based Violence (GBV) sector is an asset*As a mover, no driver's license is required.
