Volunteers take on all roles at ACES. We accept donated goods during our open hours (8:30 – 11:30 on Mondays and Wednesdays) and sometimes on other occasions when arranged in advance. We sort donated items based on condition, cleanliness, and appropriateness to meet our current needs. When we are not able to utilize donated goods, we pass them to Goodwill. We staff both the adult and the children’s clothing areas to assist clients with their clothing needs. We staff the food pantry to sort and stock donated goods and to fill food orders for our clients. We sort donated household items and keep our warehouse stocked and orderly. We staff our database and registration table and assist new clients in filling out registration forms and updating forms as needed. At each visit we check client’s credentials (ID and address verification), confirm their eligibility for the service(s) they request and enter their visit into our database for future reference. We remotely staff our senior rides program (additional information below) and our financial assistance program. In addition to the day-to-day activities of the volunteers, we also have volunteer board members that are voted on each year during our annual meeting. The board positions include President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer, two Members at Large, and a Senior Rides Director.
