Volunteering

Volunteers at Katy’s Kloset

Katy’s Kloset is a volunteer-driven organization with committed volunteers donating 14,000 hours annually. Volunteers continue to be our foundation. However, they also have the flexibility to serve at their convenience. After 20 years, we hired our first paid Executive Director November 2021 to provide a foundation of support for our volunteers.

We are in need of volunteers throughout the week. Roles include:

Assist customers with pickup/drop off
Cleaning/inspection of equipment
Selecting equipment for orders
Sorting/restocking medical supplies
Loading mission trucks
Parking lot attendant
Order processing: work from home/computer
