| Description | The Mile High United Way Children's Holiday Party is our largest community outreach event of the year. Last year we invited nearly 400 families to come and celebrate the holidays with cookie decorating, craft making, games, face painting and photos with Santa. Thanks to the generous donations of our community and corporate partners we are also able to provide a toy store where parents can "shop" for new gifts for their children. At the end of the day families left with great holiday memories, books for the children, coats for the family, and wrapped gifts to put under the tree. Bilingual Volunteers Needed for this opportunity! Interested in buying toys for the Children's Holiday Party, check out our Amazon Registry HERE. We hope you will join us at the 2019 Children's Holiday Party! |
| Requirement Details | Anyone planning to volunteer must register with specific & separate email addresses. Children are welcome to volunteer at this event. We ask that anyone under the age of 16 volunteer with a guardian throughout their shift and do not need to be officially registered.We are searching for volunteers who are bilingual. |
| Perks | Spreading holiday cheer to families in our community. |
| Parking Details | Volunteers are welcome to utilize the Mile High United Way parking garage. There is also a parking lot available across from the building ($5/day). Volunteer check-in will be in RB’s Café, the Mile High United Way breakroom. Please check-in there upon arrival. To access this area: o From the garage: use the elevator and go to the 1st floor.

Hi, I’m unable to volunteer tomorrow along with my friend John Nouss since we are both sick from colds. Hopefully we can next year since I love this event. We are Santa’s Helpers, 10:45am shift.
