It takes the busy hands of many people to fill My Stuff Bags for all the children we serve. Your hard work not only helps us get Bags into the hands of kids more efficiently, but also saves on labor costs. We can’t do it without you!

The My Stuff Bags Foundation Volunteer Center is located at 5347 Sterling Center Drive, Westlake Village, CA 91361. We welcome individuals aged ten (10) and above. Children under 16 must be accompanied by an adult.

Group Activities

Enhance your impact by involving your peers, coworkers, and friends. We encourage groups to collect new items prior to volunteering, which helps replenish our inventory and extend our reach.

Review our Guidelines for Corporate-Community-School Group Events and ensure all required authorization forms are submitted before your participation:

The My Stuff Bags Foundation requires an Individual Volunteer Authorization Form to be filled out by first time visitors. The Individual Volunteer Authorization Form will be sent to groups with children under the age of 18 prior to your event, so that a parent can fill out the form for the child. Everyone over the age of 18 will fill out the form at the first visit to our Volunteer Center.

Contribute to the warmth and comfort of children by making no-sew fleece blankets, a cherished gift among the children we serve. This activity also qualifies for community service hours—students should verify with their school’s requirements.

Collection of Donated Goods for My Stuff Bags

Donate Stuff

We welcome all donations big and small of new items for the kids. This initiative is crucial for helping us expand our reach and impact more children nationwide.
