Volunteer with us
We love our volunteers! Our volunteers help keep our store running and the expertise they bring is so impactful. We thank our volunteers by offering them the first pick of our donations before they are on the sales floor and a 20% store discount. Please Complete the Volunteer Interest Form Below!
Some volunteer tasks include:
-
Volunteers can help us sort donations into their proper categories. This can be really fun, getting to look at all of the treasures that come in through our doors!
-
Our fabric is either yardage that gets folded, remnants that get rolled and rubber banded, or scraps that end up on our scrap table. We also process quilting fabric into fat quarters and salvage to salvage cuts. Our volunteers take the time to measure fabric yardage and decide the best home for it.
-
Our volunteers help us provide excellent customer service to all of our customers and donors. Our volunteers greet donors as they come in, help them by receiving their donation, and offering a tax receipt.
-
Volunteers help keep our store running each and every day! Some volunteers prefer a routine, they have their set task, and some like something new each day.
