The front office may be the head of the organization but our volunteers are definitely the heart.
- Our longest serving volunteer has been with the organization for eighteen years
- An average of 70 people donate their time each month to service our clients through our various programs
- Our volunteers typically contribute over 20,000 hours of their time on an annual basis; saving over $400,000 in labor costs; something to cheer about!
We could not begin to fulfill our mission in Lincoln County without the dedication, devotion and deeds of these wonderful people.
