Love a good op shop?

Heather Moore from Volunteering Waikato

We recommend spending some time on the other side of the counter as an effective treatment!
Get yourself to an op shop and volunteer to lend a hand. There are treasures to be sorted and displayed and lots of customers to be assisted. All you have to do is find the shop that supports the cause closest to your heart and apply!
We're look for op shop helpers in Tuakau, Hamilton, Huntly, Ngatea, Waihī, Te Awamutu, Whangamatā, Whitianga, Paeroa, Matamata, Coromandel, Te Aroha, Taupō, Thames, Cambridge AND Morrinsville - whew!!
