Volunteering- good for you and the community!
Our Local Matters volunteers have been hard at work this year! So far we've had 147 volunteers donate over 700 hours of time to our projects, and most recently, to the Hoover Y Learning Garden. We welcome large groups for this project, and one volunteer wrote me after they were done: "I wanted to let you know my social action group had a great time working at the Hoover garden last week. The person working there (the other Lauren) was really great and welcoming, and we definitely want to go back. Last time we did weeding and digging which was fun but I know many of the volunteers expressed an interest in coming back when we could also help pick the food!"
We use volunteers for almost all aspects of our programming- which is how we're able to have such a large reach! Our volunteers are an integral part of the LM team, and we appreciate all they do. Please let us know if you're interested in volunteering by filling out the online form here. Have a fantastic summer!
