The agency is following all CDC requirements by screening volunteers, having them fill out a questionnaire, and also doing a temperature reading. Shifts will have groups of 10 volunteers and United Way will follow the distancing requirements of 6 feet apart.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>United Way prefers volunteers be at least 18 years of age. Those willing to help in this time of need should go to the United Way of Van Wert Facebook page and complete the post\u2019s attached Google form. Those who sign up for a shift will be contacted the day before their shift to confirm and tell them where to report.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The United Way asks that those who have any signs of sickness refrain from volunteering at this time.
