Thank You Monthly Volunteer Night Volunteers!

To kick off the new year, Girlstart introduced a new volunteer opportunity with our Monthly Volunteer Nights! Girlstart is opening its office the third Tuesday each month for interested volunteers to help with various projects and prep tasks. We had a great turnout for our January and February volunteer nights, and those who joined us ensured all materials were prepped for our spring After School programs and community events.

We will host volunteer nights throughout the year and look forward to welcoming familiar faces as well as new ones when we start these back up in the fall of 2020!
