(Blog Note: SOS will come before posts dealing with the Season Of Service... you can also look it up by the label topic on the side bar)
I’ve volunteered for several years now with a local organization called FISH (Fast, Instant, Sympathetic, Help).
Specifically, I volunteer at the Bargain Loft as a cashier on Saturdays. And it’s really, really fun and easy!
The Saturday shifts are broken into two shifts: 10am to 1pm; and 1pm to 4pm.
Earlier this year, I also volunteered to be in charge of the Saturday scheduling (the woman who normally does it was leaving town for an extended period). I send out msgs to a roster of volunteers to fill the Saturday shifts for the month. Just a minimum of 3 hours a month is all that’s required—easy peasy! Of course, you can sign up for more shifts that just one! I’m volunteering three shifts this month, due to lack of volunteers. We desperately need more Saturday volunteers! Also, there are folks who volunteer during the week, but I’m not involved in the M-F scheduling, just Saturdays.
