National Volunteer Week 2008

In observance of the National Volunteer Week, April 27 - May 3, 2008, Goodwill of Southern Nevada, Inc. proudly hosted an "American Bar Association Volunteering Day of Caring." This exciting event took place on Friday, May 2, 2008, and was made possible through the engagement of the most wonderful group of Corporate Volunteers; or Ambassadors of Goodwill as we like to call them! As the members of the American Bar Association attending a professional conference in Las Vegas, the group approached Goodwill because they also wanted to give back to the community. Goodwill of Southern Nevada, Inc. could not be happier to have been chosen by this dynamic and truly caring group. They did make a difference! While at Goodwill, ABA Volunteers assisted with a variety of tasks in retail and warehouse settings. In Goodwill's Cheyenne Superstore, volunteers greeted the customers, helped with stocking and restocking, helped organize clothing racks, helped colorize the merchandise, and sorted hangers. In Goodwill's Processing Center, volunteers provided much-needed support processing donated merchandise by bagging toys for children, hanging clothes and defacing the Target Merchandise to fill store orders for the following day's sales. And because the sales of donated "gently used" merchandise in Goodwill's Retail Stores supports the Job Training and Job Placement Services for community members with disabilities and other barriers to employment, the ABA group directly supported our mission! And for that, the entire Las Vegas Community will always be grateful!
