Volunteer
Volunteers make the difference. Garrison Area Caregivers is run by volunteers, and all operations labor at both Dorothy's Rainbow Food Shelf and Dorothy's Rainbow Thrift Store is volunteer-powered. We can always use your help.
Online signup
Use the links below to open the volunteer calendar for either Dorothy's Rainbow Thrift Store or Dorothy's Rainbow Food Shelf. A name and email address are required to sign up. Your information is not shared outside our organization, and Signup.com will send reminders for the shifts you choose.
Occasionally we may send a request for help with a specific event or time slot that is short-handed. Come and help. It is a great way to get involved, meet people, and build community with others who share the common goal of doing good locally.

Other ways to help
We are always looking for people to volunteer in other ways too, including maintenance and repairs, serving on the board, or running to town for a specific food order when something is out of stock.
If you are interested in helping with something like this, contact a board member and let them know what you are thinking.
