Volunteers are the cornerstone of our event. We couldn’t do it without you!  The profits from the Kids Konsignment Sale help pay for CEC enrichment such as playground maintenance, music classes, creative movement classes, field trips and much more.  We ask CEC families, church members, and consignors to join us in volunteering for this special fundraiser. Spouses, grandparents, neighbors and friends are all welcome to volunteer!

• Shop early at an exclusive pre-sale

• Earn up to 10% more on your consignment sales (1% more per hour volunteered, up to 10 hours)

• Support the programs of Childhood Enrichment Center, Kids Ahead, and Christ United Methodist Church

• Make friends and socialize with other volunteers

Volunteer shifts will be released about 3 weeks prior to the sale. Check back soon, or join our email list (top of the page) to stay updated.

Our sale runs smoothly because of our amazing volunteers! Whether you enjoy helping shoppers, staying organized, or working behind the scenes, there’s a role for everyone. Most roles are easy to learn, require no special skills, and have clear instructions provided onsite.

Simply drop your items off at the main CUMC entrance (to be stored in Missions Closet) or at the preschool if dropping off your child.  We are happy to arrange for pickup of large donations or large items if you live within a 10 mile radius of the church.  Contact us at kidssale@gmail.com to arrange pickup.
