Stay familiar with what is on our Wish List
Stay in contact with donors that are "on the fence"
Meet and greet donors when they drop stuff off, if possible
Coordinate a tour of the space, or promote our Tour Video
Send/give tax receipts to those who want them
Coordinate pick up of donations if necessary
Sort/photograph donations
Post photos and descriptions here on Donations Received
Distribute items into appropriate areas with help of Area Captains
Store other items
Photograph items that go into service, post to our wiki
Rinse and repeat
(also watch Craigslist for free stuff?)
