So far we have added 50 new contacts through Project Outreach and we're just getting started!
I know we've been playing telephone tag with a lot of you, but we will connect soon!
If Donna or Kim, our volunteer team, has left you a voicemail, please let them know when is a good time for you to talk. Call or email Donna at donnajpelletier@gmail.com.
In the meantime, please send us your picture, so we can include you in our Home Page photo rotation. Also consider sharing your story with us--500 words or less and our editor Joani will assist you. Email your story to: mbcn@mbcn.org
If you've already started working on Project Outreach, THANK YOU, and keep up the good work!
