National Volunteer Week

It’s National Volunteer Week (April 19-29, 2009) and we wanted to take the opportunity to thank you for your commitment in supporting United Way and the Volunteer & Mentor Center. Together, we’re working to advance the common good by focusing on the building blocks of a good life: a quality education that leads to stable jobs, enough income to support a family through retirement, and good health.

But we can’t do it alone. We need the heads, hands and hearts of people like you to help tackle the problems facing our communities. If you already volunteer with United Way or other community groups through the Volunteer & Mentor Center, we thank you for your time and talent. If you haven’t had a chance to look for volunteer opportunities in our community, please consider doing so now. Visit the Volunteer & Mentor Center and give back today.

By volunteering, you’re creating opportunities for a better life for all. Thank you for opening your heart and lending your muscle.
