Giving to your community through retail volunteering
Volunteering in a retail setting is excellent work experience, and not just if you're wanting to work in retail. Volunteering shows employers that you are reliable, dependable, and that you have a great work ethic - things that every employer is looking for! In addition, volunteering in a retail setting can boost your confidence, teach you new skills, and is an opportunity to make new friends!
