My task today was to check the donated items in the store to see if they were suitable for resale and to arrange them neatly and attractively on the sales floor. I noticed how friendly all the volunteers there were and that there was a real sense of camaraderie. I’d been wanting to take part in a volunteer event like this for quite some time, and I’m glad I finally had the chance. What I particularly liked about the Rescue Mission was that the proceeds from the items sold go to help the homeless and people in need, and that the store even has 16 beds available for people experiencing housing difficulties. I now have a good understanding of this type of volunteer work and would definitely do it again in the future.
