Basic steps to help keep our outreach and route collections safe, timely, and organized.

In this kit

Thank you for serving! This guide outlines basic steps to help keep our outreach and route collections safe, timely, and organized.

  1. Finding outreach areas. Before launching outreach, begin with prayer to seek direction for the communities we visit.
  2. Planning and driving the route. Practice runs ensure our pickup routes stay on schedule at service time.
  3. Outreach flyer guidelines. Flyers are an excellent, low-cost tool to connect with residents.
  4. Service attendance record. Accurate records ensure safety, track route growth, and confirm no riders are left behind.
