Sign up for an upcoming Volunteer Orientation.

Our valued volunteers typically work in 4- hour shifts, however, we work with their schedule the best we can. They assist the team with tasks like sorting donations, pricing/tagging incoming merchandise, putting new merchandise on the sales floor, cleaning, merchandising, etc.

Volunteers not only get the fulfillment of being a part of an amazing organization but they also receive our 20% OFF Volunteer Discount on all purchases!

Sign up for an upcoming Volunteer Orientation, being held at both locations offering several days/times, with more to come in the new year!

If you would like to proceed through our on-boarding process without attending an orientation, please complete our Volunteer Application. We will then reach out to begin the three background checks, required by NJ Department of Human Services (CARI, Central Registry, Fingerprinting).

If you have a group interested in volunteering, please contact Danielle at dcrouse@abilitiesnw.com.

"Volunteering at Abilities was a great choice for me. The organization is an asset to the community, and working as a volunteer is a great way to contribute. I loved that the staff was so friendly and respectful of each other. I enjoyed the work and the flexibility. Definitely would recommend this to anyone with a little extra time on their hands." ~ Dianne J.

"I truly loved volunteering at the Flemington thrift store. Everyone I worked with was so nice and welcoming; if I ever had a question, they were there to help me. There was always something to do whether it was pricing items, dressing mannequins, or helping customers find what they were looking for. My time was well spent volunteering at the PossAbilities Thrift Boutique!" ~ Emily A.

"The moment I stepped foot into PossAbilities Thrift Boutique I felt welcomed. Danielle greeted me and kindly explained what kind of tasks I'd be helping out with. I never felt pressured or overwhelmed with the workload. The staff would offer me plenty of breaks if I needed, and was nice enough to ask if I wanted food or water. Overall the experience was a pleasant one and I plan on returning to volunteer for them again! I chose PossAbilities Thrift Boutique because I knew I would be making a difference by volunteering here. They are known for providing individualized employment and support services for people with disabilities. Not only do they support a heartwarming cause, but I learned valuable customer service skills during my time with them." ~ Ashley H.
