We need volunteers to help with every aspect of the store. Interacting with donors, sorting donations, pricing items, shelving and hanging items. Our merchandise ranges from furniture to clothing, with everything in between, books, art work, kitchen stuff, pet supplies, jewelry, you name it, if you can expect to see it in or around a home, you'll see it here. Cashiers and others to assist customers. Help cleaning the store in off hours. Volunteers to help with on-line sales in a number of avenues. Folks with a truck or van who can pick up donated items, or who can deliver to those without transportation. Social media volunteers and advertising volunteers. All kinds of help !!! You can work as little as a 2 hours shift once a week, or as much as you like. Currently the store is open 10 am - 4 pm Monday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. We need more volunteers so we can open 7 days a week. Every hour we are open brings in more money to care for the animals.
