what does it mean to volunteer at
?
FROM relies on volunteers in all parts of our organization.
We have volunteers who answer the phone, help in our programs, and serve in Treasures Thrift Store. We love our volunteers and couldn’t help as many of our neighbors in need without them.
We are blessed to have over 300 volunteers donate their time at FROM each year, but we always have open volunteer positions. We'd love to have you join us! Get started today by filling out the volunteer interest form.
Ways you can volunteer:
thrift store:
Cashiering: Help customers check out by processing sales, handling transactions, and providing a friendly, welcoming experience at the register.
Sorting: Go through donated items, assess their quality, categorize them by type, and help decide what's ready for the sales floor.
Stocking: Keep the store looking its best by organizing and replenishing items on the floor, arranging displays, and maintaining a tidy shopping environment.
farm market:
Sorting & Stocking: Help sort incoming produce and goods, prepare items for distribution, and keep the market organized and ready for partcipants.
pantry:
Stocking: Organize and restock shelves with food items, rotate inventory, and help keep the pantry well-organized and ready to serve clients.
Checkout: Assist participants through the checkout process, helping them gather their selections and ensuring a smooth, dignified experience.
Cleaning: Keep the pantry space clean, sanitary, and welcoming for both participants and staff through regular cleaning tasks.
annual events:
Backpack Distribution: Help sort and bundle school supplies ahead of distribution day, then serve on-site by manning tables and assisting with check-in.
Christmas Distribution: One of our biggest events of the year! Volunteers can help sort and bundle gifts, guide parents as they shop for their children, assist with food basket bundling, support pickup day for Christmas food baskets, and serve at tables during the main distribution event.
"FROM is such an important part of our lives, and we are so grateful to be involved. It touches our heart and stirs our soul, and drives us to want to help more and more."
