The Service Collaborative continues its successful initiative in addressing the extreme level of child poverty through the Beds for Buffalo project. The project provides the basic human need of child sized beds for families in need. The Beds for Buffalo project needs your help building 200 handcrafted, twin beds.
Volunteers will participate in the project and assist with the milling, sanding, painting and/or assembly of beds. All volunteers will be trained on these tasks and supervised by volunteer leaders.
The project will take place at The Foundry (298 Northampton St, Buffalo, NY 14208) on Friday, June 4th from 9:00am until 12:00pm. TSC will provide the proper instruction, safety review and supervision to support the project. All volunteers will be required to health screening questions and a temperature check prior to entering the building. All volunteers will be required to wear a mask. All volunteer projects will take place outside, under a covered patio (normal operations for all projects in the spring/summer/fall) with social distancing measures in-place. All personal safety devices (goggles and ear protection), tools and equipment required for the project will be provided. TSC encourages all volunteers to dress accordingly. No loose clothing or open toe shoes to ensure safety in woodworking and manufacturing environment. All volunteers must be 18+ years of age and older.
