Dunia Marketplace depends on volunteers who help with the daily operation of the store. Volunteers are trained in a variety of tasks from assisting customers with cash register sales and unpacking or repairing handicrafts, to recruiting new volunteers.

Volunteers build cultural understanding and form an important link between customers and artisans, by learning about the handicrafts and telling the stories of the artisans who make these beautiful products.

The management team plans and coordinates the volunteer schedule. Store volunteers usually work one four-hour shift once or twice a month, although they may work more or less often. Our volunteer coordinator, Leonise Yates can be contacted at leonise@duniamarketplace.com or 208-333-0535.
