Urgent Needs: Anything you can do to help with the following would be greatly appreciated. Contact anitao@summitfirc.org.
Store Assistance at Summit Thrift & Treasure Thrift Store
Time commitment: 4 hours a month but will happily increase if you have time
Tasks: Sorting, pricing and organizing donations
Benefit to FIRC: Revenue from the Summit Thrift & Treasure is a major contributor of financing FIRC programs. Donations keep the store in business and we greatly need help organizing the donations so they can be sold.

Packet Assembly and Copying
Time commitment: 1-3 hours a week
