The New Beginnings Market is IRCO’s pilot project initiated in response to an unprecedented need to support the resettlement effort for incoming Afghan and Ukrainian refugees and parolees by supplying household items, furniture, hygiene kits, and more in the Portland Metro region.
We welcome corporate and organization groups of 5 to 15 people to come together to help us ready the market for newcomers. For this opportunity volunteers will be expected to: * Sort, fold, and hang clothing inventory * Sort and organize furniture and household items * Sort and organize personal care items * Process and track new inventory * Prepare welcome kits * Help tidy the warehouse
Please wear closed-toed shoes.
IRCO's mission is to welcome, serve, and empower refugees, immigrants and people across cultures and generations to reach their full potential. Our vision is future where all refugees and immigrants belong, our staff are nurtured, and all communities thrive.
Volunteers provide assistance to various programs that impact immigrants, refugees, and low income families in the Portland Metro Area.
