VITA Volunteer Kickoff

Less than two weeks ago we started off the 2009/2010 VITA season with our VITA Volunteer Kickoff Event. On a warm sunny Saturday in November volunteers turned out to meet each other, meet their site coordinators and get signed up for classes.

As the smell from the barbecue grill waifed across the courtyard, volunteers shared their excitement about helping the Tucson and Pima County community.

We had 15 brand new volunteers sign up to learn how to prepare taxes, and 8 new asset development or CA$H (Creating Assets Savings and Hope) volunteers.

Returning volunteers were able to pick up their books to begin studying and 50 more signed up for trainings to be held throughout Tucson.

Lots of connections were made and judging from the smiles on the faces of our volunteers all in all it was a successful day!
