 Volunteer Coordinator Joins Habitat continued
Melissa also has worked for political campaigns, the Salvation Army, and child-abuse prevention organization, Exchange Club Yellow Umbrella. A graduate of Carnegie-Mellon University, Melissa has a degree in Policy and Management. Most recently she worked in Florida, but was glad to come to the Pacific Northwest where she has family.
Melissa's goals for the volunteer program are quite ambitious. Ultimately, she'd love the program to be self-sustaining and substantially automated. Making it easier for volunteers to sign up, get scheduled, and maximize their skill sets. She'd also like to increase the scope of what volunteers are able to do-especially with the 'A Brush With Kindness' program kicking off this year. In the short term, she looks forward to working with volunteers building houses this year.
Next time you are at an Evergreen Habitat event-whether it's a build, the Tool Box Bash, or our Raising the Roof Breakfast, be sure to introduce yourself to Melissa. And she will be sure that you are connected with volunteer opportunities that suit you best.
If you would like to contact Melissa about volunteer opportunities at Evergreen Habitat, she can be reached by emailing volunteer@ehfh.org or by calling 360-737-1759.
