We offer several types of volunteer opportunities at our Reuse Arts Center: General Art Center Shift: A sort of catch-all tidying shift! This slot involves sweeping and tidying the reuse center, cleaning up messes and moving items back where they go in the store, and overseeing general tidiness and cleanliness. Tidying The Lot and Sideyard: Our lovely Scrappers tend to drop small items or use our side yard for hangin' out throughout the week, and after enough time it needs some love. This shift includes picking up trash from the yard and lot, tidying the front bed and entrance area, and making sure we look good on the outside as well as the inside! Sewing, Notions, and Yarn Processing: Fantastic fit for our stellar sewers! This involves wrapping and pricing yarn, sorting thread and buttons by color, and keeping the Notions area tidy. Paper & Office Processing: This is a great opportunity for anyone with a real passion for ~school and office supplies~! Extra points if you have some skills and knowledge around paper and scrapbooking and of course like to tidy. This involves organizing binders, sorting paper and other items, and placing and pricing supplies.

We offer several types of volunteer opportunities at our Thrift: Processing: Arguably the most vital link in the Scrap system is Processing at Thrift. This is where we receive and process all the donations we receive - it involves putting clothes, housewares, shoes, accessories, and more onto the sales floor. These donations have already been processed by our on staff processors, you just have to put them in the right spot! We also need help breaking down excess boxes, keeping the area tidy, and helping out our hardworking processors in whatever they may need. Tidying Shelves and Display Areas: Making sure our shelves and displays are clean and pretty! This involves dusting and sweeping shelving areas, organizing housewares and frames, and making sure things are organized as best as they can be. Fixing Hangers and Clothes: Working with our fabulous clothing options! This shift involves picking clothing up off the floor and putting them back on hangers, fixing and tidying hangers on the racks, and putting clothes from the dressing room back where they belong.
