BabyGoRound's program benefits low income families by providing access to essential baby gear and clothing, free of charge. We receive donations of second-hand clothing and baby gear from the public, which is processed and prepared by our volunteers. Our clothing sorting volunteers play a key role in ensuring that our inventory of baby clothing is organized, well stocked, and meets our quality standards.
Impact of this role:
Last year, BabyGoRound's program supported 1761 families with access to essential baby gear and clothing, positively impacting 5,750+ family members.

Approximately 95% of baby gear that BabyGoRound distributes annually is gently used. Last year, 66,800 lbs of pre-loved baby gear was diverted from the landfill, thanks to our community of donors and volunteers. Our gear processing and clothing sorting volunteers keep this circular system going round - checking, cleaning, and preparing critical baby gear to be passed on to the families who need it most. This circular approach of collecting and connecting pre-loved baby essentials is more than an exchange; it’s a cycle of care that benefits our planet and people.

Key responsibilities and duties include:
<ul><li>Inspecting clothing donations to ensure they are clean and in good condition
</li><li>Sorting clothing and accessories by style and size (e.g., sleeper, top, bottom, jacket / 0-3mo, 3-6mo, 6-12mo etc.)
</li><li>Keeping inventory well labeled and organized
</li><li>Putting laundry in the washer/dryer
</li></ul>
Skills:
<ul><li>Organized and detail oriented
</li><li>Enjoys engaging in repetitive tasks
</li><li>Able to use problem solving skills and judgement on condition of items</li></ul>We are looking for volunteers who are able to contribute at least 4 hours a month to this role.&nbsp;Comprehensive training, and ongoing support is provided.
