Volunteer Opportunity with The Salvation Army – Peoria
Looking for a flexible, impactful way to give back—from anywhere? Host a remote collection drive and rally your friends, workplace, school, church, or community group to support neighbors in need!
We’re seeking Volunteer Drive Leaders to collect high-need items for individuals and families served by The Salvation Army of Peoria.
What We Need Most:
-
Hygiene Products (toothpaste, deodorant, shampoo, soap, feminine products)
-
Pantry Items (non-perishables, canned goods, shelf-stable snacks)
-
Men’s Shelter Essentials (new/gently used socks, belts, shoes, underwear, t-shirts)
-
Cold Weather Items (blankets, coats, gloves, hats, scarves)
You Can Help By:
Organizing a collection at your school, workplace, church, or online
Spreading the word via social media, email, or flyers
Coordinating drop-off of donated items at our downtown Peoria location
This is a great opportunity for students, service clubs, scout troops, youth groups, businesses, and families looking to give back on a flexible schedule on your own terms and timeline!
