Thammasat University graduates chipped into organize inventory and price
products as the Redemptorist School for People with Disabilities opened Ray’s
Second-Hand Shop.
Accounting and business-management students in Thammasat’s five-year fast-track
bachelor’s / master’s program joined with workers from Might International Co.
to organize shelves, add bar codes and price donated items put up for sale when
the store opens March 16.
Ray’s Second-Hand Shop offers clothes, electrical appliances, stationary,
furniture, home furnishings, toys and toiletries donated to the Father Ray
Foundation to be sold to raise funds for the Redemptorist school.
Storing them, however, had become a chore and the warehouse a
mess. The students benefitted from hands-on experience managing business
inventories and point-of-sale systems, helped the school bring order to the
chaos. They categorized products into groups, tagged items and helped prepare
the store for the public. Mighty International sent employees to install
electrical appliances and move heavy items to higher shelves.
