Volunteer Drive 2022

Save to Favorites

If you have one day a week with a spare four hours in the morning or afternoon, we could use you! The easiest of positions to fill are those with common skills, like running a cash register, but we also need those with specialized skills, like managing goods for ebay, social media management, and pricing jewelry and antiques.

The priority list of needed volunteers looks something like this:

1. We need a professional organizer (or two) to help utilize a small space effeciently!

2. Pricers for each category. We don't expect that any one person can cover them all, but to specialize in identifying and pricing one of the following categories:

• Antiques and collectibles

• Vintage clothing

• Designer clothing

• Jewelry

• Artwork

1. We need people who can focus solely on ebay. You would be working with 1-2 others to manage setting up a system which will track, store, and ship goods for this stated purpose.

2. Display and Merchandising. You have the ability to design interesting window fronts, in store displays etc.

3. Social Media management. Handling Yelp, Facebook, and Instagram. Taking pictures of incoming goods and turning them into posts to advertise.

4. Community outreach person. An individual who will find and network with other interested organizations and business' to collaborate on, or host events with the goal of raising money in our fight against cancer.

5. Builders/Fixers. Crafty people who can make the stages for window displays, shelving for the backroom/store organizing, repair kick-knacks, occasionally perform maintenance around the shop, fix a lamp or toaster oven, and touch up paint etc.

While those are specialized positions, we also have need for:

1. Cashiers

2. Salespeople

3. Pricers/sorters to look up prices on common modern goods and set aside specialty items for antiques, jewelry, art etc.

4. Steamers (using a steamer to prepare clothing for sale)

The typical shift is 4 hours and 15 minutes.

Monday 11:45am-4pm

Tuesday through Friday 9:45am to 2pm, and 2pm to 6:15pm

Saturday 9:45am to 2pm and 2pm to 5:45pm.

You can work any day and on any shift that fits your schedule dependent on availability.

Thank you so much for your consideration and if you find yourself compelled to donate your time to this cause you can reach me at the shop directly by calling 707.224.4398 or emailing bonnie.shields@cancer.org. If you are in the neighborhood, you can always pop on down and say hello in person at 1380 Trancas St, right here in Napa.

Sincerely and gratefully,
