Volunteer

Volunteers are the heart and soul of our organization. It’s a very rewarding way to become involved and there’s a volunteer opportunity to suit all interests and activity levels.

Here are just a few of the ways our volunteers make a huge contribution:

Events - Activities such as the annual hike, the Angel Tree, auctions and yard sales bring our members together, help spread word in the community and raise money.

Communications - Volunteers help produce brochures, keep the website up to date and help spread the word about our activities in the community as public speakers.

Office support -There’s always something to do in the office—from helping with mail outs to updating databases.

Administration - Running a volunteer society takes a lot of hands—and brains. We’re always looking for committed board and committee members.

Gardening - We're blessed with a lovely garden at Pryor House. Volunteers helped to reclaim it from the weeds when we took over the building and help to keep it looking lovely throughout the year!

Renovation - It's an old building and there’s nearly always some fix-up project on the go. Many hands make light work!
