Benefits
The Consignment
Sale is run solely by volunteers. Your volunteer help is needed
to ensure the success of Sale-which means the success of our programs
and member benefits. We ask all sellers who are able to volunteer
to work one 4.5-hour shift during the Sale.
But…there
are incentives! For each additional shift worked, you keep an additional
5% of your revenues. The more shifts you work, the more you keep
of your revenues. For example, after your first volunteer shift,
you receive 65% of revenues. After the second, you receive 70%,
and so on. If you really can't volunteer at the Sale-if you're out
of town, working, nursing, a single parent, etc.-you can still sell
your items without volunteering. SFPOM members who sell but who
do NOT volunteer will receive 60% of the revenues, still more than
what you'd get at a Consignment Sale. And more importantly, the
rest of the proceeds support the Club!
New incentive
for volunteers this Sale! If you volunteer to work during each
shift of the Sale, you can keep 100% of the proceeds from your sold
items!

Guidelines
Once you sign
up for a shift, you're required to find a replacement should you
not be able to work that shift. Please plan to arrive 15 minutes
prior to the start of your shift. This will give you enough time
to be trained on your volunteer role. Refreshments will be available
during your shift.
Privileges
All members
who volunteer are allowed to shop on Friday between 6:30 and
7 pm, 30 minutes prior to the Members Sale Preview. Volunteers
can also shop early on Saturday from 8:30 am to 9 am. The Sale
opens to the public at 9 am.
