Bright Futures Joplin Donation Center Coordinator

The belief that each individual community has the ability to help every one of its children thrive is a core value of Bright Futures USA. Bright Futures USA uses its proven framework to help communities and schools partner to quickly and efficiently meet students’ basic needs, often within 24 hours. This allows teachers to focus on educating students and allows students to focus on learning and ultimately achieve success. Bright Futures USA operates under the belief that when communities invest their time, talent, and treasure in their children and schools, students are more likely to stay in school through graduation, have a higher degree of self-worth and confidence, and set and reach goals for the future. In turn, these students grow up to be better neighbors, quality employees, and impactful leaders in their communities. It is a win for all parties involved. The goal of the current project is to recruit a VISTA to serve in Joplin, MO. Bright Futures Joplin has a Donation Center where the community can donate goods to be used for these immediate needs. These goods must be accounted for, shelved and then retrieved at the appropriate time and supplied to the students in an honorable and legal manor. This function needs to be volunteer led and run. You will be asked to recruit volunteers, orient them to the various tasks, train them in certain legal procedures, ensure that safety and confidentiality are maintained and all student needs are met in 24 hours.
