Select an area Blessing Box to donate to and #UPTHEGOOD. This is a fantastic team building activity for branches and departments. Simply select your chosen Blessing Box from the following list and grab a few non-perishable food items, basic toiletries, or baby supplies while on your normal grocery run.

Hey REV Crafters! Please sign up here for general REV Crafter Activities that don't fall into other nonprofit areas already in the system (ex: Project Linus)!  This way we count every amazing hour you contribute into the REV Crafters total hours!  Please adjust your hours as needed. 

You can #UPTHEGOOD by collecting pop tabs – they help keep the lights on and doors open for Rondal McDonald House families!

Check with your department or branch to see where to drop them off to be donated!

"The price of aluminum fluctuates on the stock market (typically from 35-85 cents/pound), and that is the amount of money that we get from recycling the pop tabs. The money we get from this is used to cover our electric bill every month, so the pop tabs make a huge difference to the RMHC Charleston House! The families here at RMHC Charleston are so thankful for your ongoing support."

Work with our team to put together small gifts for our local NICU nurses. Some months it will be attaching candies to cards and other months it may be stuffing bags with various goodies.

REV Day 2023 introduced our Helping Hands soap and dish scrubbies in-kind donations. Grab your needles and join the REV Crafters in their efforts to REV Up a local habitat home. 

Knitted Knockers are special handmade breast prostheses for women who have had breast cancer and undergone mastectomy or lumpectomy. Traditional breast prosthetics can be hot, heavy and sticky. They typically require special bras or camisoles with pockets and can’t be worn for weeks after surgery. Knitted Knockers are soft, comfortable, beautiful and when placed in a regular bra they take the shape and feel of a real breast. They are adjustable, washable and can even be worn while swimming. Our special volunteer knitters provide these FREE to those requesting them.

Connect with Jennifer Koon and the REV Crafters Club to learn more!

We're teaming up with Project Linus to share new, handmade, washable blankets for seriously ill or traumatized children. Become a "Blanketeer" to help comfort children in need. This easy, no-sew activity can be done on your own time, and is a terrific opportunity to work as a team or with family and friends at home. All needed materials are available to you through the Employee and Community Engagement Team. 

The hearts are called “Bonding Hearts.” Baby keeps one and Mama keeps one for 24 hours effectively transferring their scent to it. Then they switch. This way, Mama has baby’s scent (encouraging breast milk production during their separation) and baby gets Mama’s scent (teaching baby what Mama smells like). The Gtube covers are typically used by babies who have “Graduated” the NICU. Sometimes, the only way they can go home is with a small “port” in their stomach where they can get nutrition.

For the heart pattern, here is what you do:

The success of the North Carolina Azalea Festival is made possible through the hard work and dedication of a large corps of community volunteers. Nearly 100 volunteer committees plan and organize events such as the Parade, the Waterfront Street Fair, the Spring Soiree and the community clean-up called Azalea Sweep, as well as critical operations such as communications, transportation, sponsor relations and event hospitality.

Volunteer opportunities may be available for a single day or involve a year-round commitment. The level of involvement you choose depends on your interests and availability. We will work to get you involved in a way that you find both meaningful and enjoyable. Communication with potential new volunteers generally occurs in the beginning of the Fall, and periodically throughout Festival season (Oct-April).

Every year following the Festival we host a special party for all of the Volunteers that helped with the Festival events as a thank you. There are also social events for the Committee Chairs of each of our Committees.
