We will hold a free volunteer information breakfast from 7:30 to 8:30 a.m. on Thursday, Sept. 20, 2012, at the Human Services Campus (317 7th Ave. SE). Through the work with our community partners, we have identified 250 volunteer opportunities in areas related to supporting children and youth through reading, tutoring and mentoring.
Attendees will hear how they can help children in our area and learn about the opportunities that are available. Space is limited for this event. Please RSVP by September 18 by clicking here. We hope to see you on Sept. 20!

RAGBRAI WRAP
Thank you to the community for coming out in force to help with RAGBRAI in Cedar Rapids on July 26 and 27, 2012!
In all, 700 community members filled 900 shifts and volunteered 2,000 hours! The independent sector values those hours at $43,580!
Wow. Thank you!
Volunteers helped with everything from sign removal, staffing information booths to giving riders direction.
"This event was another indicator of how great this community is," said Sue Driscoll, United Way's volunteer manager. "We hope everyone stays involved and continues to volunteer."
