“I love that I meet new volunteers each time I go in store and sometimes I even get a chance to teach new people. Not only this, working with others in doing group tasks like assembling or moving furniture and organizing the store really builds up a bond amongst all. The most important part is that I get to practice the concept of diversity and equity by serving the community, which is really a rejoice.”

Dylan Pinto, ReStore Volunteer
