Hoosier to Hoosier (H2H) is a volunteer-powered reuse program that aims 1) to divert reusable items from the landfill during student move-out, 2) to prevent additional resource consumption by selling collected items to students and community members in order 3) to raise funds for local charities and other organizations. Register here to help Bloomington green its move-out this spring and summer!
Upcoming Volunteer Opportunity Descriptions
May 31; June 4, 16, 27; July 20, 27, 28
Pick-up & Sorting Volunteer Days
Volunteers will be assigned to either transportation or storage. Transportation volunteers will work with a small group picking up donated items with the H2H trucks from off-campus student apartments and greek houses and then transporting to the sale storage location. The storage volunteers will be working at the storage trailers receiving the items from the transportation volunteers and sorting/organizing all items for storage. Volunteers ought to dress for active work and warm weather. We will supply gloves, drinking water, and lots of appreciation. An important note: some activities may require heavy lifting. Please let us know if you're unable to lift heavy items so we can assign you appropriately. Volunteers can work for a shift of their choice anytime between 9 am. and 3 pm. Email h2h@indiana.edu to sign up, and H2H will contact you and tell you where to report for your volunteer sorting activity.
August 1-10

Hoosier to Hoosier Community Sale (Volunteer or just attend!)
We need YOU! Volunteers will be assigned to a variety of sale day activities. You may be an information person, a roving helper/ carrier, a roving tally person, a tally table person, an area helper in household, furniture, clothing, etc. Working the sale is a fun and active experience where you be a Hoosier helping other Hoosiers. Answering questions, identifying item cost, keeping items tidy and organized – we need YOU. And you will have an opportunity to shop the sale too! Come, experience, and be a part of Bloomington’s largest Community Sale!
Volunteers play a vital role in making the Hoosier to Hoosier Community Sale happen, from collecting and sorting donations, to publicizing the sale, to hosting the sale itself. No experience necessary. Without volunteers, there would be no H2H. Thank you for considering being a part of this important event!
