Two Months Ago...

Two months ago I would have never thought I'd still be working away at United Way...but I am! And I couldn't be more thrilled (and grateful they kept me around). It's been so busy these past few weeks; finishing posters and invitations for this years campaign events, working on Day of Caring details and doing anything I can to help out.
I can't believe how much United way has opened my eyes to our community and the organizations within it. I would have never known about all the amazing people who work here and all the work they do to help make the Hastings and Prince Edward Counties better.
I'm grateful for all the experiences I've been a part of to date and hope my adventure here won't end anytime soon! But no rest for the weary, back to work I go!!
And don't forget to check out the list of upcoming events that I hope you all will be a part of!

BUSY BUSY BUSY

With so many events on the go and overlapping, these past few weeks have been getting very busy...Luckily everything I do is fun so its not discouraging at all!

A couple days ago I was able to participate in a Caring for Others training session. Caring for Others is a great United Way funded program that brings different types of role models into grade 4 classrooms to discuss age appropriate volunteer opportunities. There I got to listen to a bunch of great speakers talk about their experience in the classroom and I became more and more interested.

I think its a great program and I hope at some point I'll be able to participate in an actual classroom.

Until then I need to get back to work and plan one fantastic Day of Caring.
