This recruitment program was kicked off 2021 to help find more people in the community to join in. There will be a drawing when enough new recruits are brought in for a fair drawing to receive the potential award described below.
We’ve invited a large number of community organizations to share this volunteer opportunity within the local community. If you have any suggestions of ways we could recruit more people, please pass them on to us!
