Description
ABC Children's Aid is an Icelandic charity founded in 1988. The aim of ABC is to be a channel for Icelandic people to help children in unprivileged situations in developing countries to get education and home where needed. ABC is focusing on supporting children with education, food, clothing and medical help, through its partners in Asia and Africa. One of the fund raising methods is a second hand store located centrally in the Capital Region of Iceland, and this is where the ESC volunteer will be involved. Volunteer's tasks: Receiving goods for sale, categorize and evaluate all goods ABC receives from the local community; communicating with local customers in the second hand shop; participating in the day-to-day operation and administration, mainly in the second hand shop; learning about the benefits of a circular economy, with the possibility to initiate projects related to the reuse of used goods, promotion and awareness raising of a circular economy.
