Project Safe Thrift Store Sorting and Organizing

Thank you for your interest in the 2023 Athens MLK Day of Service! Below you will find details about the Day of Service and this specific project.

Event Schedule
Kick-off Event: 8:30 AM - 9:30 AM at Clarke Central High School (350 S. Milledge Avenue)
Volunteer Shift: 10:00 AM - 12:00 PM at the Project Safe Thrift Store (995 Hawthorne Avenue Suite 7)

Project Description

Volunteers will help with sorting and organizing Project Safe's Thrift Store. The store helps support survivors of domestic violence as clients are able to shop at the store for free for items they need, and sales from the store help fund Project Safe services. Volunteers will be sorting donations, hanging up clothing, organizing racks and shelves, and assisting with cleaning projects (sweeping, dusting, mopping). Volunteers should wear closed toed shoes and clothing they don't mind getting dusty.

• This site is family-friendly. Minors must be accompanied by an adult.
• Volunteers should wear long pants, close-toed shoes, and dress in layers.
• Bring a filled reusable water bottle.

Registration Notes
Children under 18 should be registered by their parent/guardian. To do this, select "Add Attendee" at the top of the registration page BEFORE submitting your registration form. Check the box that says "Check if minor" and you will then be prompted to enter a first and last name (you do not need to enter an email for a minor). All volunteers under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult.

We are not able to accommodate large group registrations. If you have a group that would like to volunteer at the same site, each individual must separately register through Engage Georgia.
