NEIGHBORHOOD CAPTAIN

ORGANIZE A DONATION DRIVE

ORGANIZE A DONATION DRIVE

  Neighborhood Captains serve as vital advocates in their communities to help local children in need. By sharing the Boxes of Basics mission, encouraging neighbors to donate children’s clothing, and spreading the word about drop-off locations, Neighborhood Captains expand awareness and increase clothing donations to meet growing demand. This role allows you to make a meaningful impact by dedicating a few hours each month—right from your neighborhood. 


 The program is perfect for volunteers who may not have time to work at our warehouse but still want to support local kids. By engaging your neighborhood, you’re helping us reach more families and provide children with the essentials they need to succeed.

Volunteer FAQ's

Inclement Weather Policy

Boxes of Basics will follow the Prince William County School decisions in the case of inclement weather. If Prince William County Schools are delayed OR cancelled, then all volunteer shifts and Boxes of Basics activities are cancelled for the entire day.  


Volunteers and staff should always use their best judgement and put their personal safety first in instances of inclement weather. 

Volunteer Age Requirements

 Children who would like to volunteer to pack Boxes of Basics and sort clothing must be at least 12 years old and must be accompanied by an adult the entire shift. If you have a child 12 or under check out our page for future volunteers!

12 & Under Future Volunteers
