What to expect
Frequently Asked Questions
- Group
How big can my group be?
We can accommodate a group of up to 15. If your group is bigger, please contact us to discuss!
What will we be doing?
You’ll play a key role in helping our youth achieve their business objectives! Daily activities can vary, and while our Volunteer Coordinator will provide a general idea when you schedule, be aware that tasks may shift. Common activities include sorting donations of books and clothing, packing media items, organizing and tidying bookstore shelves, managing online order fulfillment, and more!
Can we come in the evening or pick our own time?
Group volunteer slots are determined by Fitrah according to our business needs and the schedules of our youth shifts. Unfortunately we are not able to accommodate for evening times to volunteer. Our typical time slots are between 9-3pm
We want to do group mentoring/coaching with youth, can you set that up?
Our group volunteer opportunities are focused within our youth-run business, where we have found that groups are most effective in supporting our mission and empowering our youth. Building strong, trust-based coaching relationships with young people requires time and dedication, which is primarily handled by our full-time staff and long-term individual volunteers.
