Clothing Bank Sorting & Distribution

Wednesday afternoons from 12:00 to 3:00 or 3:00 to 6:00pm and Thursday mornings from 8:30am to 12:30 pm involve distribution and working with the public.

Once you sign up for a shift, consider it confirmed. Please arrive about 15 minutes early for your first shift to fill out a volunteer application and waiver along with getting a brief orientation.

This volunteer role may include the following tasks:

Front Desk:  Assist with counting and bagging items upon checkout

Sorting: Separate out anything that has any of the following traits : stains, broken zippers, missing buttons, rips, etc. Make sure everything is in good enough condition that you would gladly gift it to a friend or family member. 

Hanging: Hang items according to posted signage. Receive donations as they come in during service hours. Perform any other extra tasks the clothing bank manager needs.

You may be placed in other departments help out as needed. Hours can be flexible, please ask.

Please park away from the building during service times Wednesdays 3-6pm and Thursdays 10am to 12:30 to make it easier for clients to load their food, clothing or laundry.  

*To enter, use the double green doors at the food bank if no one hears you knock loudly at the front door.     If you anticipate having difficulty meeting this obligation in any way, please let me know as soon as possible either by email, phone or text at 509-879-6309, please include your name and the shift you signed up for so I can find a replacement for the schedule. Thank you, Nina, Volunteer Manager
