Mayor Bruce Harrell announced registration has opened for the second One Seattle Day of Service, which will be held in neighborhoods across the city on May 20.
Registration is now open for over 3,000 volunteer shifts at over 110 events throughout Seattle. More shifts and events will be added until the day of the event.
There are over 100 partner organizations participating in the One Seattle Day of Service representing a diverse group of public, private and non-profit partners and organizations, including El Centro de la Raza, FareStart, Chinatown-International District BIA, Belltown United, SODO BIA, Food Lifeline, Ballard Alliance, Seattle Sounders FC and Seattle Seahawks.
Volunteer opportunities include a variety of options for people across ages, abilities and interests. Most volunteer shifts are 2-3 hours, ranging from just a few volunteers to up to 100 per shift. Nearly half of activity opportunities are open to all ages, and more than one third are open to all abilities.
Volunteer activities include:
Cleaning and beautification — collecting trash, removing graffiti, building repair and painting
Gardening and restoration — weeding, planting, storm drain protection and trail repair
Helping neighbors in need — grocery packing, donation organizing, and tiny home construction
