Volunteer: Help Guests Shop the Community Closet!

Guest Experience Volunteers help create a welcoming, dignified shopping experience for individuals and families visiting the Community Closet. During shopping hours, volunteers greet guests, assist with registration, offer support while shopping, and connect guests to additional community resources when appropriate. By helping neighbors access free, essential clothing, volunteers play a direct role in easing household expenses and supporting financial stability. Program staff are always on-site to provide guidance and support. This role is a great fit for volunteers who enjoy meeting people and making a meaningful, people-centered impact.


When?

Tuesdays – 2:45pm to 5:15pm

Wednesdays - 4:45pm to 7:15pm

Fridays - 8:45am to 11:15am

  

Where?

The Community Closet is located at 705 S. 24th Avenue, Suite 440. We share a building with T-Mobile, and the Community Closet is on the north side of the building.

 

Time Commitment

To staff regular hours, we are looking for volunteers who can make a commitment to two shifts per month. Exceptions may be made in certain circumstances. If you are looking for a one-time opportunity, check out our options here: https://www.unitedwaymc.org/volunteer

 

Age Requirement?

18+

Volunteer: Community Closet Donation Processing Volunteers Needed

United Way of Marathon County's Community Closet provides free clothing for people of all ages for all occasions.

Donation processing volunteers are needed to help staff the Community Closet during donation intake hours, to sort through clothing donations and prepare items to be hung on the shopping floor. We believe that guests to the Community Closet should receive clothing they can wear with dignity and pride, so we ask volunteers to assess items for quality and wear before they are given to guests.

Volunteers will go through simple training before signing up for shifts. Background checks will be required for regular ongoing volunteers.

 

When?

Wednesdays – 1pm to 4pm

Fridays – 9am to 12pm

 

 

Where?

The Community Closet is located at 705 S. 24th Avenue, Suite 440. We share a building with T-Mobile, and the Community Closet is on the north side of the building.
