Western Pizza Volunteer Coordinator
As a Western Pizza Volunteer Lead you will work in collaboration with the Volunteer Relations lead to meet Regina Cat Rescues fundraising goals through the presence of RCR at Mosaic Stadium events in the WP Kiosk.
You will work with a team of WP Volunteers and RCR leads to coordinate volunteers to attend each event, along with actively recruiting, supervising, training, and assisting volunteers at events, as needed. As a remote-based organization, you will be working from home aside from attending events or occasional in person meetings.

You will clearly communicate to each volunteer their responsibilities and tasks.

Special Occasion Responsible Service (SORS)
New volunteers should complete the Special Occasion Responsible Service (SORS) training. SORS is an online course required of all volunteers who serve or sell alcohol as part of an unpaid special occasion position (such as events at Mosaic). Without the course you can still volunteer at these events, but won’t be able to work the cash register and/or serve alcohol. We need a minimum number of volunteers who can work the cash register and/or serve alcohol, so it’s a great benefit to RCR if you complete it. Here are the details:
Find out more information and register for the course here.
The online course takes approximately 1 hour to complete.
Enter the code VOLUNTEER (in all caps) when purchasing the course and the fee will be waived.
When completing your registration, identify the organization as Regina Cat Rescue.
Once completed, please email a screen shot or photo of your certificate to volunteerwp@reginacatrescue.com.
Certificates are valid for five years.
