ReStore Seeks Volunteers before Grand Opening

is looking for volunteers to staff its floors before and after its grand opening in June.

Volunteers will organize each section of the store, which is selling furniture, home goods and decorations at 30 to 50 percent below the retail cost. People are needed to sort, organize and shelve items to make the store presentable in the next two months.

Some of the items donated to the store will be used to build houses through Habitat for Humanity, while others will be sold to members of the community who come in to visit. The money raised will go toward building projects for the organization.

Volunteers currently are needed during the following hours:

• Tuesday - 10:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.
• Wednesday through Friday - 9 a.m. to 4 p.m.
• Saturday - 9 a.m. to 2 p.m.
• Sunday - 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.

In addition, the ReStore will be run by volunteers after its opening. The organization is looking for people to fill regular, weekly shifts on a volunteer basis. 

The hours of the ReStore will be:

• Monday through Saturday - 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., but volunteers will be needed between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. on those days.
