Volunteer Needs From: Volunteer West Michigan - Allegan, Kent, and Ottawa Counties

We take in weekly shipments of goods from organizations like Costco, Amazon, Crate and Barrel and
so many more. These goods are then sorted, organized, and stocked out into a retail like setting, and need your help!

This is an ongoing need. Daily hours of operations for volunteers are Monday- Friday 9a-3p.

We operate a School Store that serves hundreds of teachers with school supplies. This store gets
depleted every Tuesday and Thursday and needs restocked in between. This store can use someone to
restock the merchandise as well as help teachers find needed products and load their cars with their
items.

 

Stocking days: Monday-Friday 9a-3p
Shopping Clerk Days: Tuesday and Thursday 3:45-6:15p
