Volunteering at Catholic Housing Services’ Villa Santa Fe site (VSF). Bakerview Family Housing, LLC, also known as Villa Santa Fe apartments, is designated as a farmworker housing area and home to many different cultures. It encompasses a 50 unit apartment complex along with its office space and community rooms. In-person work strongly requested.
We at Villa Santa Fe practice safe public health measures that are in compliance with the Washington State Safe Start reopening project including: mask adherence in public indoor spaces, limiting of office entry to those with appointments, COVID-19 screening for office entry, social distancing between work spaces, appropriate daily sanitization of commonly touched surfaces/areas, and required masks for office entry for visitors (masks are readily provided upon request).
All work will be done in the vendor community room and throughout our three apartment buildings. Masks, face shields, and other PPE such as gloves are required for participation, even if one is fully vaccinated for COVID-19 or not. We are happily able to provide all three, and usage of your own personal PPE is encouraged. For the time being, Catholic Housing Services continues to follow its own mask mandate while Washington State has fully reopened.
Tasks include: lifting of boxes containing books, handling of mobile library carts for transport in and around buildings, weekly disinfection of books in return boxes, weekly check-ins of book return boxes, and monthly rotation of books between our library reserves and the mobile carts on display. This makes for a great opportunity for those who are interested in community service, socially-distanced programming for youth, and books.
Must be willing to work-in person, have availability for up to 30 minutes on a weekly basis, and up to 2 hours (at the latest) on a monthly basis, comply with our sanitization protocols, and possess a willingness to serve others.
Please call or email Tracy at (360)-594-6495 or TracyW@ccsww.org with any questions you may have. We look forward to hearing from you!
