COVID-19 RELATED IMMEDIATE VOLUNTEER NEEDS
Help Make Fabric Masks
We have an IMMEDIATE need that you and your family could potentially help us with. We need 1000 masks for our Social Workers, and the families they serve. With the current shortage, we are asking volunteers to make fabric masks and drop them off at our locations throughout central Illinois.
Your safety while dropping off masks is most important to us. Our offices are currently closed to the public, but once you are ready to drop off, simply go to the closest location, where there will be a phone number to call, to alert our staff you have some masks to be dropped off.
We also would be happy to reimburse you for the purchased materials.
Here is a link to how to make the mask:

Volunteers at The Center for Youth and Family Solutions make a difference every day in the lives of children, seniors, and families. Our volunteers have a true spirit of generosity and bring hope to those in need. Whether teaching a child to read or visiting a lonely senior, our volunteers are an essential part of the work we do. Volunteering is a way to share your gifts, gain experience, meet new friends, and give back to your community.
COVID-19 Alert: Until the COVID-19 Crisis safely resolved, direct contact with clients or with the public will not be possible. We do however, have other needs (pick up food baskets at food banks, pickup other needed supplies for families, make donations of books or magazines for kids and seniors.
