Helping job seekers find jobs that not only provide income but also a sense of purpose goes a long way toward fulfilling Catholic Charities’ vision of helping people in need achieve self-sufficiency and live with dignity. On July 16, Catholic Charities will partner with Workforce Solutions to connect job seekers with local employers, job openings, and community resources at a community job fair at the Mamie George Community Center.
You can play an important role in connecting job seekers with employers the day of the fair in one of the following roles:
Registration Desk Attendant (1-2 volunteers wanted) to greet attendees, help with check-in, and direct job seekers to employers or workshops.
Employer Liaison (2-3 volunteers wanted) to assist employers with setup (booths and signage, materials), answer their questions, and ensure they have what they need.
Wayfinding & Crowd Control Guide (1-2 volunteers wanted) to guide attendees to different areas (employer booths, workshops, restrooms, etc.) and to manage lines and prevent congestion.
Floater/General Support Assistant (2-3 volunteers wanted) to fill in where needed (restocking supplies, assisting other volunteers, troubleshooting, etc.) and to assist with outdoor traffic control/parking/and assisting with table or chair cleanup after the event.
Specific roles will be assigned on the morning of the job fair. Please note that passing a criminal background check is required.
