Request for Bilingual Volunteers for COVID-19 Vaccination site at NRG Park |
|
As you’ve read in the news, FEMA has set up a large COVID-19 Vaccination site at NRG Park, serving 6,000 people per day. Because of the large number of our community coming through, there’s a need for bilingual volunteers to help those whose first language may not be English.
There’s an urgent need for Vietnamese and Mandarin-speaking volunteers. Below are some of the highlights of the request:
- The NRG Park CVC (Community Vaccination Center) runs 7 days a week, from 8am to 6pm (or until the last vaccine for the day is given)
- There are 2 shifts each day: 7a-1pm and 1pm-7p
- Volunteers must be 18 years or older
- Volunteers need to have an advanced knowledge of both languages English-Mandarin/English-Vietnamese, as some of the translations are medical in nature
- Volunteers MAY be eligible to receive a vaccine at the end of the day if there are doses left over that must be used. This will vary day to day and are not guaranteed.
- This is an outdoor volunteer position and they will be on their feet most, if not all, of the day
- Breakfast and Lunch will be served and snacks, coffee, and water are available throughout the day
- You can sign up for as many shifts as you able to serve
