Volunteers needed to help provide outstanding customer service at a nonprofit used furniture store.
We love our customers and our community! We want to make sure that every person that comes into our store feels welcome and knows they can ask us anything and we will be there to help them!
Can you help us do that?
We especially need volunteers on:
Tuesdays and Thursdays from 3 - 6 pm,
Wednesdays anytime between 11 am - 6 pm
Saturdays and Sundays anytime between the hours of 11 am - 6 pm.
You'd be in greeting people, making sure they know about our sales so that they can save money, helping them look around, measuring furniture, answering questions and more. Learn valuable customer service experience that will help you in just about any career!
You don't have to "make sales" or learn how to use a cash register. You would just be working with people. And there is always staff available to help with questions you don't know!
Contact us today!
Complete service hours! Meet new people! Have fun and make a difference!
