George Fox Employee Serve Day Sign-up

Please take the time to fill out the form below. All employees will be assigned to a specific site, by filling out this form you are giving us important information so we know how to best place you.

Due to the increasing need for transportation to serve sites we would greatly appreciate it if you would be willing to drive. Drivers may submit requests to be reimbursed for gas. We need all the drivers we can get!

Can you drive?

Are you willing to be a Serve Day Safety Leader?

A safety leader functions as the eyes and ears at the serve site helping monitor the well-being of volunteers. Safety leaders make sure volunteers are hydrated, wearing sunscreen and not pushing themselves too hard.

We would like to offer you the invitation of choosing your top five choices of serve sites. Below is a list of tentative volunteer sites. Due to transportation and logistics we cannot guarantee that all of these sites will be places we serve, but many of them will. We also can’t guarantee that you will get one of your choices, but we will do our best! In the space below please indicate your top five sites (in priority order) using the full name of the serve site. If you have no preference write “open” in the provided blank. In late August you will receive an e-mail with your final assignment for Serve Day.
