Job Descriptions We have approximately 11 different job description resource sheets available in the coaching room for everyone’s reference. Please feel free to give them out to your clients if they are doing further work on their resumes and use them yourselves when you need specific verbiage.

Annual Spring Sale a Victory! A big thank you to everyone who volunteered with all aspects of this year’s spring sale! The sale was attended by 123 eager clients who were ready to shop. We earned $1,730 and helped all participants build their wardrobe! Thanks to all the volunteers who made this day such a success.

Our Evening Organization Situation Evening volunteers are in a unique situation when working with clients in that there is no point person at reception to help with check out. In order to keep all of the client paperwork organized, we have designated a spot for all appointment documents to reside. If you work the evening shift, please familiarize yourself with our checkout process. Jessica or Lakiesha will be happy to show you the ropes the next time you are here.

Front Desk Duties Central to the client experience is the human connection that our clients receive when they come into Bottomless Closet. We strive to have someone to welcome them at reception at all times. To that end, we try to ensure that all volunteers have the training to step into the reception role as necessary. Please see Lakiesha to schedule a one-on-one training session so you too can be the face of Bottomless Closet. She will explain how to handle client intake, the NEW phone system, paperwork and appointment closure to ensure each woman has a consistent client experience at Bottomless Closet. Thank you in advance for your participation.
