Summer Volunteers Needed

It's hard to believe that May is half over. The IFC has been holding steady with volunteers. We are so appreciative of all the help we get on a daily basis throughout the agency. As the summer approaches, we will see a slight decline in student volunteers.

There will be openings in some positions. If any volunteers would like to pick up extra hours or if there are new volunteers that are interested in summer work, please feel free to call me at 929.6380 x. 30.

Thank you for your continued dedication and support of the IFC. You are a valued part of the agency. Please email me at volunteer@ifcmailbox.org for information on current openings.
