Rotary District 5890 Responds To COVID-19

 
We have a great opportunity to get boots on the ground and staff the volunteers at the Harris County NRG location and at the various Methodist Hospital locations.  District Governor Scott Rainey has sent emails to all 5890 Rotarians for both opportunities on February 25th.  Please help to support this effort in your location and around the district.

CITY OF HOUSTON HEALTH DEPARTMENT

Houston Health Department Volunteer at the NRG Stadium location. 

Below is information and link "BUTTON" on how to register to be a Houston Health Department Volunteer at the NRG location. 

Link to REGISTER:  ROTARY DISTRICT 5890.

The very first step is to Register.   The Registration process will identify you as a Rotary 5890 Volunteer. This includes any  non – Rotary friends/family or others you partner with in community service that you extend this opportunity to.  Please keep in mind as you do extend this opportunity to others they will be representing Rotary 5890. 

We are asking that, if possible, when you volunteer you wear a Rotary shirt and/or your Rotary badge or at least a name badge you prepare that identifies you as a Rotary Volunteer.  (not required, but helpful)

While the City offers volunteer opportunities to others such as the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo – they are giving Rotary an exclusive opportunity “First” to fill these slots.  Thus, it is critical that people register as quickly as possible.  Once they get your info, they will begin contacting volunteers Saturday (February 27th) morning with more details and give you the opportunity to actually sign up. Please note for THIS opportunity the request is that you commit for at least one day a week (or multiple days) to reduce the training/orientation.  If Rotary does not meet the need , they will then open to others (and I am told that they fill up in just minutes).  So Rotary PLEASE – lets show them what we can do!

Volunteers needed 7 days a week, beginning Monday, March 1st through April 24th at NRG Stadium.
The Houston Health Department needs 8 (2- bilingual) volunteers Monday-Sunday beginning Monday, March 1 - April 24th at NRG Park.   Essential we would like to have volunteers commit to help out at least one day a week to help reduce the training process.
You will receive just-in-time training for your job duties when you arrive.
