  • A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
  • 9 people are interested

Foothill Family Shelter is opening a brand new thrift store, selling clothing, homeware and small furniture items and we need your help to get started! 100% of the proceeds will go to Foothill Family Shelter to sustain programs that aid the homeless and low-income communities in the Inland Empire. Foothill Family Shelter provides basic needs such as clothing and food bags, counseling and coaching services.

We are pushing for one more volunteer day to finish the setup of the store!

We are looking for volunteers to help a couple of hours during March to stock, inventory and merchandise our new store. Volunteers will be working from 11:30 am-5 pm Wednesday, March 25th and then 10am-5pm Thursday, March 26th through Friday, March 27th. We are flexible and asking for any help the community can provide. This type of oppotunity is great for anyone with daytime availablity or just want to take some time off to help Foothill Family Shelter. Interested volunteers should be comfortable and flexible lifting, moving and working in a family enviroment with our products and items.

We are asking all volunteers to confirm their attendance by contacting Thrift Store Assistant Manager, Steven Alvarez at Steven.Alvarez@FoothillFamilyShelter.org or phone: (909) 931-2181.

Thanks!
