Student Volunteers

Student Volunteers are always welcome at Fly & Dry Basic Needs Bank! Consider us when looking for rewarding ways to fulfill your community service hour requirements for school and clubs. With our online volunteer signups, tracking and verifying your hours has never been easier! We offer several evening and Saturday morning volunteer times each month to work around your school day, but they fill up fast so don’t wait till the last minute!

Group Volunteers

Bringing your group in to volunteer is a great way to get involved with our organization and give back to your community! We regularly host 2-3 hour private volunteer events for your school, work, church or club. Giving back to your local community is a great team-building activity!

Young Volunteers

Kids are always welcome at Fly & Dry but we rely on their guardian(s) to help us gauge how they can help. Not only can we keep them busy with light work, we also have a small play area to keep younger kids occupied (and contained if you’ve got some really little ones!). Kids under the age of 16 must be accompanied by a guardian and maintain a youth to adult ratio of 3:1.

There are many ways your younger children can get involved outside the warehouse too. Whether it’s organizing an incontinence supply drive in your neighborhood or school or an Empty-Your-Piggybank change drive to collect loose coins for Fly & Dry, it’s never too early to start teaching our kids how to serve others and their community. We’d also love to come to speak to your Daisy Troop, Girl Scouts, Cub or Boy Scouts, church youth group, or another group of youngsters about basic need poverty in the Greater Cincinnati community and how they can help to eliminate it.
