    About This Opportunity

    The volunteers in our Wood Shop build furniture and toys to either give away to our low-income Voucher clients or sell for low prices in our Thrift Store. They meet on Monday, Wednesday and Friday mornings for carpentry and fellowship. It’s a wonderful group of people who enjoy woodworking and making long-lasting friendships.
