Hopelink, the largest nonprofit social services agency helping people in east and north King County, is seeking volunteers to work at any of its five centers in Bellevue, Redmond, Kirkland/Northshore, Carnation or Shoreline.

Hopelink relies upon volunteers for such jobs as sorting food in its food banks; helping adults learn to read, do basic math, study for the GED exams or learn English as a second language; providing child care and homework tutoring to children in our housing facilities; delivering food to homebound clients; or answering phones and helping with administrative tasks. Hopelink’s newest center, Kirkland/Northshore, is in particular need of food sorters and shelf stockers for its grocery store-style food bank.

New volunteers over age 16 and volunteers between the ages of 12 and 16 with parent/guardian supervision must attend an orientation.

Sessions are scheduled:

Wednesday, Feb. 3 from 1-2:30 p.m. at Hopelink’s Bellevue center, 14812 Main St., Bellevue; or 7-8 p.m. at Hopelink’s Kirkland/Northshore center, 11011 120th Avenue NE, Kirkland.
