A plea and a promise

​Plea: Drop-In Summer Help Needed!
Promise: You won't regret your time helping with the vital work at Twice is Nice!

What makes right now--that is, the start of summer--unique?

• Regular volunteers take time off to watch grandkids, travel, schedule medical time off, etc.
• Student volunteers drop off almost completely
• Donations surge after rummage sales, estate sales, moving, etc. 

Open shifts on our volunteer calendar are for specific customer-facing roles and hours, but listing only those shifts on the calendar does not mean that they are the only times we can use extra hands to process donations. Below is a list of a few areas that currently are in need, along with optimal times to drop in! You don’t have to wait until 10 am--volunteers are always around by 8 am! Come to the back door east of the donations door at 907 W Racine St any of these times to be introduced to whichever you choose from these jobs (no prior experience needed!):
