We’re one of the few Non-Profits invited to the annual Inspired Home Show to accept donated merchandise. This merchandise is later sold at our huge April fundraiser, the Super Sale. All proceeds benefit the Sertoma Centre and our Consumers. But first, we need your help collecting our items, packing them up, and moving them out. Food and fun will be provided! Let’s Do This!

Volunteer Roles:

Volunteers will be assigned to booths to wrap, pack, box, and place housewares items on pallets. Please note that booths are located throughout all of McCormick Place, making even the closest booth a far distance to walk from the buses. Comfortable shoes and clothing are recommended.
