Volunteers Make It All Possible
At WestSide Baby, our volunteers work hard every single day to help bring our mission to life. Each carefully packed order, bundled diaper, and sorted donation helps ensure that children in our community have the essentials they need to thrive.
Whether you’re joining us for a one-time shift or volunteering regularly, your time directly supports families in our region. Here are just a few of the ways our volunteers make an impact:
- Sort donations to ensure every item we distribute is clean, safe, and affirms a child’s value.
- Pack customized orders with essentials to keep children warm, help them learn, and inspire joy.
- Bundle diapers so babies in our community stay clean, dry, and healthy.
- Inspect car seats, strollers, and other gear to make sure it’s safe and ready for use.
- Drive our WestSide Baby van to pick up donated items from community drop-off sites.
Sign up to be a WestSide Baby volunteer below—and help give every child the chance to be safe, warm and dry!

“I have volunteered lots of places over the years and I have never felt better about an organization. I feel appreciated and listened to – and I know I am making a difference to kids and families in need.“
“I love to imagine the smile on a child’s face when they’ve just received a pair of warm pajamas, a new shirt or shoes, or a book and a toy. It is so wonderful to volunteer with this organization, knowing I am truly making a difference in the life of a child.” – WSB Volunteer
