Our friends at the The Royal Children's Hospital, Melbourne Foundation are seeking a regular volunteer for their gift shop. Please contact Lucia as below if you are interested! Dear Auxiliary Member, We are writing to ask if there are any auxiliary members interested in becoming regular volunteers in the Gift Shop. We are specifically seeking volunteers who are willing to learn how to use the register which is a MYOB system and to learn about stock control. Full comprehensive training will be provided but experience using computers is strongly recommended. The auxiliaries team is seeking volunteers who will be able to commit to a regular roster and your hours will be credited to your Auxiliary. It should be noted that the regular gift shop roster will continue but if you already help out and would like to take on this specific role we would love to hear from you. If you are interested please contact Lucia on lucia.dimaio@rch.org.au or 9345 4508 Best wishes Michelle Rule Auxiliaries Manager
