The Monessen Free Store will be one step closer to being ready for the public. There is a Free Store Prep Day on Saturday, March 18, 2023 from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM at the Schooner Youth Center – the location of the new Free Store.
The Free Store committee is looking for volunteers to clean and prepare the store for the public, to help transport shelving and racks to the store, and to greet people as they bring their donations.
Anyone may bring new or gently used items during the event too – however the store will only be accepting items and will not yet be ready for the general public to visit. Items being accepted are clothing and accessories of all ages, sizes and types, small appliances and household items, home décor, school supplies, and other similar items. The store will not accept large furniture or electronics such as phones and game consoles. The store will also not accept perishable items, but it hopes to be able to do so in the future.
For more information, or if you would like to volunteer, please contact the Monessen Free Store on their Facebook page (https://www.facebook.com/freestore15062), or email co-coordinator Matt Shorraw at mshorraw@gmail.com.
