Volunteer Meet & Mingle (In Person)
2022-04-19 16:30 - 18:30
Join us for our 2nd Annual Volunteer Meet & Mingle at The League on Tuesday, April 19 at 4:30 pm. This event gives you an opportunity to meet our different program staff while learning about the many different types of volunteer opportunities that support each program and the organization as a whole. Volunteers play an important part in the mission of The League and is one of the reasons why your TIME investment results in $.83 cents of every dollar donated to The League going directly into our programs and services!
We have opportunities for everyone. Whether you are a stay-at-home mom looking for something to do once in awhile, a young professional with a few hours a month of employer sponsored volunteer benefits, or a retiree looking to make a difference with their newfound time– we have something for you.
If you are a person with a disability, we also encourage you to apply! Learn some new skillsets or build your confidence in a safe, inclusive and diverse working environment while preparing yourself to enter the workforce to increase your independence.
We have this in person event as well as a virtual event during the day to meet everyone’s schedule needs. Can’t make it but still want to learn more?
