Volunteer Opportunities at Teachers Warehouse

It’s projected that usage of Teachers Warehouse will increase by 33% this year; thus, there is a growing need for volunteers at TW. Support groups from the area Rotaries and retired teacher ranks are responsible for providing Saturday morning crews. Could MCRTA take on the 5th Saturdays (April, July, Sept.) from 9:30 a.m. – 12:30 p.m.? Ideally, 3+ folks make up a volunteer crew? Also, individuals can volunteer at Teachers Warehouse on a daily, weekly, or monthly basis. Most work once or twice a week: M, T, W, or Th from 3:30 – 6:00 p.m. Contact Sue Cull at: skcull52@gmail.com.
