Your time is valuable! Make a difference. Spend your volunteer time spreading the word about social justice for the African (black) community while enjoying the sunshine and some physical exercise. We go every Saturday and Sunday from 11am to 3pm. We go as a group. On each shift, we do one of the following activities:
- Hang Posters (in store windows or on wooden poles)
- Distribute door hangers, from house to house in Oakland and Berkeley (no ringing doorbells etc. We just hang the door hanger on the knob).
- Hand out leaflets to people at Festivals throughout the Bay Area. The door hangers, posters and leaflets let people know that they can make donations of furniture, vehicles, hot tubs and collectibles to Uhuru Furniture & Collectibles, an economic development institution of the African People's Education & Defense Fund. Our mission is to build campaigns & programs to address the disparities in social justice, economic development, health and education of the African community. Check out www.apedf.org. We meet on site (site changes weekly) Individuals and groups welcome! We will be outside for several hours. Good shoes are recommended. Contact: email apedf.volunteer@yahoo.com 510-763-3342

Description
Uhuru Furniture and Collectibles is a non-profit store that is a fundraiser for black community empowerment programs of APEDF. We receive a truck load of donated furniture and household items every day. This is a lively, popular Grand Lake area store staffed mostly by volunteers. When you volunteer at Uhuru Furniture, you not only contribute to the success of the store, you become part of a larger movement for peace through social justice. People shop at Uhuru Furniture for low priced, top quality items and to support crucial programs for social justice for African people.
