How Can I Help?
Volunteer in the staff room
1 hour per month commitment; Volunteer would be assigned to the 1st, 2nd, 3rd, or 4th week of each month to go in and tidy the space
Tasks include: Wipe down counters & tables, wash any dishes in sink, clean microwave, pick up any stray trash, put clean dishes in drainboard away in cupboards
Be in charge of the monthly fridge clean out; pull everything out of fridge on the last school day of each month and put it into the trash
Help us acquire items for the staff room
In order of priority, we are looking for:
Coffee filters (“bucket” or “basket” shape, #4 size)
Good quality tea in tea bags (please, no "loose leaf" tea)
Plain white ceramic serving trays/platters and/or serving bowls
Whether you're interested in helping out just one time or you'd like to join the Staff Appreciation team, we'd love to hear from you at volunteer@ogsupporters.org
