Volunteers sought for NRC fundraiser

HandOn Greater Richmond is looking for volunteers to help out at the NRC to assist with “eco” stations & teach about recycling & composting on Sunday, July 25:

For this fundraiser benefiting the Neighborhood Resource Center, we need volunteers to assist event coordinator by monitoring “eco” stations – stations set up to collect trash, recycling, and compost. Volunteers will stand at an assigned eco station and help people determine which items go into which bins.

Volunteers will be briefed on which items go where and signs will also be placed on and around bins. At the end of the event, volunteers will be asked to weigh and record the trash, recycling, and compost collected from each eco station. Recycling, compost, and trash will be moved to one central location for easy pickup. Please note that volunteers must be able to life up to 25 pounds.

Required Attire: Comfortable clothing and sturdy shoes–things you don’t mind getting a little dirty.
