Opportunity Details
Support the Free Store for Teachers! (age 11+) *STW 2014*
We stock our shelves with new school supplies collected from businesses and individuals so teachers can stock their classroom for free. Teachers who shop at Schoolhouse Supplies find that we are just like any retail store, with shopping carts, bright displays and a variety of merchandise!
As a volunteer, you'll be helping us keep the Free Store for Teachers well supplied by working together to sort, tally and prepare donated school supplies for the store.
Schoolhouse Supplies is an award-winning nonprofit that supports public education in Portland by giving students and teachers free classroom supplies. We operate Oregon's only volunteer-run Free Store for Teachers, which is stocked with supplies donated by the community, the Tools for School backpack giveaway, and Schoolhouse Supplies Online programs.
Note: Volunteers age 11-16 may volunteer along with a responsible adult.
Volunteers age 17+ are welcome to volunteer on their own.
