COVID-19 UPDATE

Like so many of you, this COVID-19 pandemic threw us for a loop initially. With careful planning and discussion with our community partners, we are excited to get together again and start volunteering! It will look a little different, and for the time being we will not host an after-serving gathering at a local restaurant or brewery. But don’t worry, we will find other ways to keep the social element alive and well.

We recognize there are some inherent risks but we are doing our best to accommodate while still promoting active volunteerism. You know your situation better than anyone and we encourage you to join us or hold-off on in-person events based on your level of comfort.

We will gather in smaller groups than usual, and the safety of everyone will rely on each of you playing your part. Wear a mask, refrain from hugging or getting too close to anyone, stay home if you don’t feel well, and bring your own snacks and supplies… together, we can adjust and keep the mission of Service Made Social going!

Community Bucket FAQ

What happens at a Community Bucket event?

It’s easy & fun. First we volunteer for a few hours as a group, then we socialize.
Community Bucket partners with local nonprofits to set up a variety of hands-on projects. Afterwards, we head to a nearby restaurant, bar or brewery to connect further and enjoy some good times after we volunteer.

Do I have to attend the social part of the event?

Attending the social event is not required, but we do highly encourage you to make an effort to attend both parts of the event. Community Bucket is built around the idea of Service Made Social, which is why we celebrate our volunteer impact at a social after each time we volunteer.

Why do you buy a ticket to Community Bucket events?

It may seem odd at first to pay to volunteer, but you are paying for the all-around experience we provide. The cost of your ticket goes toward food and drink after we volunteer, as well as helping cover other expenses related to creating a great event for you. We’re a nonprofit with a lean budget, after all! Plus, we find that paying to register leads to a stronger turnout. We always want a full group showing up to give back and have fun, and this ensures we can best serve our nonprofit partners as expected.

What type of volunteering do you do at Community Bucket events?

Volunteer activities vary from outdoor events like park clean up to indoor sorting of medical supplies. By working with lots of nonprofit partners, we can offer you a variety of volunteer activities. And if the activity doesn’t suit you one month, check back with us next month. We’re always mixing it up to let our volunteers try something new.

Can I still volunteer if I can’t swing the ticket?

Of course. We never want the price to deter you from joining our community, and volunteering alone is already a commitment we value. Just drop us a line and we’ll make sure you can get it on the next event.
