The People

Thank you to our Volunteers

Our volunteers are invaluable to carrying out our projects and programs. We could not do the work we do without them. This includes our board members who set policy and direction for the Society to our janitor and to all our many helpers who fold and stuff envelopes for us. Thank you for all you do.
