Antique Resale Shop Volunteers Needed

Save to Favorites

The Prevention of Blindness Society of MetropolitanWashington (www.youreyes.org) has ongoing opportunities at our antique resale shop on Kensington, MD's "Antique Row." All proceeds go back to the Prevention of Blindness' sight-saving programs. Volunteers are needed to help:

• Sort Donations
• Stock Merchandise
• Create Store Displays
• Work the Cash Register

This is a great opportunity for individuals interested in art, antiques, fashion or retail management. All volunteers are asked to develop a consistent schedule for their work. Volunteers will begin training once they start their service at the store.
