Volunteers Needed for AZ Vaccination Sites
Hands On Phoenix, a nonprofit that organizes volunteers for various projects, is seeking people to help staff the sites. Their website lists available volunteer slots for Phoenix Municipal Stadium, State Farm Stadium, Dexcom in South Mesa, and Yuma.
Non-clinical volunteer roles are in three areas: check-in support, data confirmation support, and logistical support, though it doesn't appear that you get to pick. Also, they note that the work is outdoors, and requires standing/moving for the majority of a six-hour shift.
The group says that volunteer interest has "taken a nose dive" now that vaccinations are available to the general population. That is probably because if you volunteer, you get a jab at the end of your shift. Now that people can get a shot without volunteering, the incentive is reduced.
Please step up and volunteer for a shift even if there's nothing in it for you except doing a good deed.
