Warehouse Volunteer at RAM HQ
Remote Area Medical is looking for volunteers to come and help in our warehouse at our headquarters in Rockford, TN (just south of Knoxville). This is an on-going need that we have for people to come and help with loading/unloading our trucks of supplies for our mobile clinics, packing/staging equipment and supplies to be loaded, helping with organizing the warehouse, etc. We need help Tuesday-Thursday of every week since we typically travel to clinics on Fridays and return on Mondays. However, on weeks that we do not have a clinic, we could use warehouse volunteers Monday-Friday. Please let us know any time that you may have available! This is a fun, stress-free volunteer opportunity to work with your hands and truly make a difference in people's lives by helping with the logistics and background efforts that go into to putting on free mobile dental, vision, and medical clinics!
