Have you logged your volunteer hours?
|
|
As a non-profit, recording volunteer hours is essential to the funding and impact of our programs. Unfortunately, only 1/3 of our volunteers log time and mileage. Volunteer Hours have recently increased in value to $25.43 an hour and help us raise a cash match for refugee programs. By logging your hours, you're helping us serve more people in more ways - thank you!
