We have a new volunteer registration system called CERVIS. Registration steps are as follows:
1. Select “Sign In” and choose “Sign in to Manage your Profile”.
2. Enter your “email” address and your First Name.
3. If you have NOT previously created a “PROFILE” you will do so now. This profile will remain for future use.
4. NEXT: Follow the steps to volunteer for a specific “OPPORTUNITY”.
NOTE: To volunteer you must select “Register/Apply for an Upcoming Opportunity”. There will usually be more than one choice. (Example: An Active Disaster Site, the Reclaimed Thrift Store, or the DRT Headquarters.) BE SURE you register for the correct opportunity.
5. You must select EVERY DAY you will be volunteering. This must include the day you arrive on site (even if you will not be working that day) and the day you depart (even if you will not be working that day). This is very important so we can plan for meals, sleeping arrangements, and assigning jobs. We will be limiting a volunteer stay to a maximum of three weeks at a time. Your stay can be extended upon approval of the lead coordinator or the directors.
6. You will receive a confirmation of your registration by email (check your spam folder if it doesn’t appear). If you are registering for a DISASTER SITE, be sure to PRINT OUT this confirmation as it has important information about your visit.
7. Thank you, and we look forward to serving with you.
Ongoing work at the DRT Facility
When DRT is not actively working at a disaster site there is work to be done at the DRT Facility in Tipp City, OH. Check the "Volunteer Signup" page to see if we are currently taking applications for work at the Facility. If "DRT Facility" is not shown as a choice it means we are NOT currently accepting volunteers at the DRT Facility.
If "DRT Facility" is shown as a choice, please select "DRT Facility" for your work location. Please make sure each person in your group registers so we know how many volunteers we will have.
If you are not able to come and help physically, please pray about helping us financially.
