Volunteers
The Anoka County Brotherhood Council Inc. is dependent on donations of food, clothing, and monetary support from the community, food drives and fundraisers from students, church groups, and other organizations. Our volunteers are individuals and couples who work at the ACBC Store and donate hundreds of hours of their time. The Brotherhood Council (422-0046) would welcome a call to discuss the possibilities such as the following:
- Grant for monthly financial support
- sorting clothing, cleaning or straightening shelves
- helping store crews during client time
- trucking, picking up orders, stocking
- acting as liaison between the ACBC and your congregation by acting as a representative
- contributing food, clothing, or monetary support
