You can volunteer in Tucson this holiday season at TMM Family Services, either at TMM’s ReStore on E 22nd St or at our main campus on N Country Club Rd. Volunteers sort donations, help shoppers, support resident events and children’s activities, and keep the office running. Every hour helps fund and support affordable housing for local families.
The holidays are when many people want to give back, and it’s also one of the busiest times of year for nonprofits. If you have a few hours a week or a single Saturday morning, here’s how you can help.

Volunteer at TMM’s ReStore
TMM’s ReStore is a 12,000-square-foot nonprofit home and home-improvement store. Proceeds directly support the families living on our campus, so every shift on the sales floor turns into housing support. ReStore volunteers help with:
- Assisting customers on the sales floor
- Organizing and merchandising clothing, furniture and household goods
- Sorting and processing donations
- Pricing inventory
- Supporting special sales and events
It’s also a great way to build hands-on retail experience. The ReStore is open Monday through Friday from 8 AM to 4 PM and Saturday from 9 AM to 1 PM, and Saturday shifts are available for ReStore volunteers.
Volunteer at TMM’s main campus
Our main campus is where families, seniors and veterans live in TMM housing. Volunteers there may help with:
- Resident activities and community events
- Children’s programming and family engagement activities
- Office and administrative support, including phones and data entry
- Helping future residents through the application process
- Event preparation and coordination
- Skilled projects such as landscaping, maintenance or professional services
Bilingual volunteers (English and Spanish) are especially helpful in the office, though it isn’t required.
Can my family, church or company volunteer together?
Yes. Group volunteering is a great holiday tradition. Sorting donations or preparing for a resident event works well for teams. Contact us to talk about a date that fits your group.
