Store Volunteer

Each day, Wheeler Mission is blessed with a large number of donations. By selling new and gently used items to the community, the Store helps fund life-changing programs. Volunteers sort, organize, and display donations alongside staff members and other volunteers.

• A servant's heart, a good work ethic, and a positive attitude.
• Able to do manual labor for at least two hours, work well with others, listen to instructions, and carry out assigned tasks with minimum supervision.
• The minimum age to volunteer is 10. Minors must be accompanied by a parent or adult while serving.

For this shift, you will put out items for display, merchandise items and set up displays.

Entrance & Sign In

• Parking: You may park in the lot in front of the store.
• Entrance + Sign-In: Enter through the front door and Sign In & Out at the Volunteer Check-In Kiosk. Let them know you’re there to volunteer and they will direct you from there! If you have any technical difficulties with this, please let us know.
