Bargain Garden Volunteers

Volunteers Needed at the Bargain Garden. The Bargain Garden is blessed to have about 100 volunteers.   Sounds like a lot, right?  While that is an impressive number, there are many shifts to cover.  In a typical month, there are approximately 48 shifts.  If there are 3 workers per shift (4 is preferred), 144-192 volunteers are needed per month, which means many volunteers work more than one shift. Our winter staff is also somewhat smaller because a number of volunteers are snowbirds. This is an appeal for both men and women (there are “jobs” for everyone) from the Federation congregations.  If you can work a shift (3 ½ hours) or two a month, please stop at the store (2725 N. Meade St., Appleton) to pick up a volunteer form.  You will be welcomed and appreciated. The Bargain Garden recently exceeded $2,000,000 in donations to support the teen ministry at Fox Valley Lutheran High School and $209,000 to other WELS charities.  Many thanks to the donors, volunteers, and shoppers who have made this success possible.  To God be the glory; great things He has done!
