VEV Chair’s Message – March 2017

Greetings, fellow volunteers,

It’s March and I can feel SPRING in the air!

As you noticed in Hallie’s Weekly Update of March 3, Volunteer Benefits are available.

ellen-oberhartWhat are Volunteer Benefits? You all know that during the first year of volunteeering, we are required to have a CAF membership. If you fulfill the requirement of volunteering 30 hours during that year, you receive an annual individual membership to CAF, as well as a 20% discount in the shop.

If, however, you have gone above the requirement and volunteered between 60-99 hours, you receive a $25 gift card AND your membership is upgraded to a Family Membership, as well as a 30% discount in the shop.

And this is the time of year when your Volunteer Benefits are available to be claimed: simply log onto The Bridge and type Volunteer Benefits into the “Search Here” box. Press enter and follow the instructions in the article. You can check your hours on the link Hallie has provided and fill out the link labeled “Form” to select the retail gift card you want to receive.

Some days, volunteering is very easy. And on other days, it is a bit more challenging to fulfill our commitments. Anyone who has put in more than twice the required hours deserves to be recognized. So please fill out the form by March 31 to receive your gift card — don’t delay!

Looking forward to seeing you in the shop, the atrium, or the Design Studio!

Ellen Oberhardt
Chairman of the Volunteer Steering Committee
