Volunteers are the heart of our business!
Classy Kids Consignment Sales cannot happen without the many volunteers who offer their time to make your shopping and selling experience fun, safe, efficient and easy. When you help us with our sales, we help you at our sale. Whether you are a shopper or a consigner or both, by volunteering or bartering with Classy Kids Consignment, we offer you fantastic incentives for shopping prior to the public, sale credit, and additional commission on your consignment.
If you are a first time volunteer with us, here are the incentives that we offer:
**Returning volunteers who would like to work MORE THAN 12 hours will be compensated with merchandise credit of $6 per extra hour to be used at the current sale.
For example: 15 hours volunteered
12 hours x $6= $72 payment 3 hours x $6= $18 merchandise credit
15 hours total
**Bartering opportunities DO NOT qualify for the $6 credit.
If you have questions regarding volunteering at a Fairfax County event please contact Amy Coots.
