BWDC is so incredibly grateful for any time you're willing to donate. In appreciation for your help, all volunteers are exclusively invited to a private shopping experience an hour before the sale opens to the public. Mark your calendars for 11 AM - Noon on Sunday, November 12 if you plan to volunteer! Volunteers will also earn raffle tickets for each shift volunteered for. This will enter you for a chance to win some prizes!
Additionally, we’ll need to borrow tables and rolling racks to use during the sale. Please let the studio know early in advance if you plan on providing either of these items. Start saving your paper and plastic bags- we'll be needing those, too! :-)
