Years ago, I was honored to be shown around a non-profit thrift store which really had it all together.
What impressed me the most? The work room where the fix-it guys, the woodworkers, the craftspeople had the tools and the space to
turn less-than-valuable donations into useful, useable, salable stuff.
There are all sorts of folks who’d like to give a few hours, or more, to your NFP… but who have no interest or no ability to staff your sales floor, your incoming door, or your cash registers.
Maybe they live too far away, have trouble standing, lack transportation or just plain would rather work with their hands, or on their own, or only have non-retail hours that they are available.
Does that mean they cannot help your mission? Of course not.
Announcing a new, special Pinterest board that’s joined our Pinterest Page:
Increase the value of your donations
It’s designed for nonprofit thrift stores: Mostly, ideas volunteers may enjoy to turn charitable donations to your NFP thrift shop into exciting and salable goods PLUS whatever else Kate Holmes, The Resale Guru, and HowToConsign.com find that will amuse, inspire, and enrich your store’s fundraising! Follow this board on TGtbT.com’s Pinterest!
At last, I found the perfect venue for our new livelihood activity for our all-women group through this Pinterest board or Aunt Kate’s. Best answer for my pressing need. Thank you!
