TMG Cares values giving back to the communities where we live and work. One of our organization's core pillars is gathering together to give our time, energy, and muscle power to organizations and events that directly benefit animals.
On October 10th, a team of 12 volunteers from the TMG Family of Companies visited the Vancouver, Washington Re-Tails Thrift store to assist with reorganizing, cleaning, and product display projects in order to get the store ready for the busy holiday season.
Sales from the ReTails Thrift store directly benefit animals in the SW Washington Humane Society shelters and help pay for things like medical care, behavioral interventions, food, finding new adoptive families, and more. TMG Cares was eager to contribute to their mission by volunteering our time and effort.
Our team of enthusiastic volunteers arrived at the store dressed and ready to put our muscles to work on any tasks thrown our way. We got busy rearranging large pieces of furniture, dusting and wiping down display pieces, and clearing off and cleaning the floor to ready the area for new Holiday displays. Armed with smiles and paws-itive attitudes, we sorted and displayed a large array of Halloween costumes for both humans and furry friends and helped to unpack various holiday decorations including the sometimes tedious task of testing and untangling Christmas lights.
TMG Cares volunteers donated a combined total of over 24 hours and agreed that it felt great to be a part of a larger mission to improve the lives of animals in need.
