ORGANIZATION: The Helpful Shop



We are looking for friendly volunteers to work in our thrift store! We resell gently used clothing and household items and use the funds to give grants to local non-profit programs. Our shop in Aptos is run by a team of volunteers.

The shop is open from 12pm-4pm daily and volunteer shifts are 4 hours.

We need volunteers for the following weekly shifts:

Thursdays from 2:30 to 6:00pm

Fridays from 2:30 to 6:00pm

Sundays from 12:00 to 4:00pm

As a volunteer you will learn how to work with our cash and credit card machine. Volunteers maintain the look of the shop, sort and price merchandise, occasionally clean a little bit, but mostly greet and communicate with our friendly customers. The volunteer will always be accompanied by another volunteer.

If you have a warm open heart and love our mission to give back to the community, then contact us! You will be part of a wonderful group of people who love our community. All proceeds from the store go back to the community as grants to non-profits. We also provide free clothing to homeless people.

We are looking forward to hearing from you and welcoming you into our team!
