Jars for quarters are stacked up in
this Livonia elementary school
classroom. It just takes one person
to get the ball—er—quarters rolling.

Volunteer Needs as of February 2008
- Golf Outing: On August 11, 2008 we will be hosting the 4th Annual "What's Your Handicap?" Golf Classic at Thousand Oaks Golf Club in Grand Rapids, MI. We are looking for volunteers to help with registration, hole in one contest, decorations, and set up. If you are interested in volunteering for this event please contact Matt Chapman at 616.493.2620.
- Wheelchair Pick-Up: We continue to see an increase in the number of donated wheelchairs to our organization. We accept new and gently used equipment that we clean up and give to individuals who need it. If you are interested picking up wheelchairs for us, please call our office or fill out our volunteer form.
- Community Outreach: We are always looking for friendly and outgoing individuals interested in helping with our community outreach. If you like to meeting new people and traveling to new locations, this job is for you. Volunteers will travel to doctor's offices, nursing homes, and churches to help spread the word about Alternatives in Motion.
- Marketing: We are looking for an energetic detail oriented person(s) to assist with our marketing and communication efforts. These individuals will help in the organization and distribution of communication pieces to various audiences including: wheelchair recipients, volunteers, community supporters, foundations, and friends of Alternatives in Motion. Computer knowledge and database experience preferred but not required.
- Warehouse Help: We have a large collection of wheelchairs in our warehouse in various stages of repair. We are looking for some mechanically inclined individuals to help us make necessary repairs to this equipment. Note: Please bring old clothes, as this is sometimes a dirty job. The job may also include heavy lifting.
