We are looking for assistance from December 1st to December 20th to help us Set Up, Sort, Pack, Distribute and put away our Angel Tree Toy shop! We need helpers to come just a few hours a day (not every day) to assist where a helping hand is needed. The timeframe varies but mornings are high priority with a start time of 10 am with the exception of distribution days where help is needed starting at 8 am. On distribution days the helper will act as a chaperone for each person and assist them as they collect their bags and toy shop. If anyone is interested please reach out - we appreciate all the help that comes to our door!
