Community-Wide Volunteer Fair to Be Held

The Volunteer Center of Cedar Valley is involved in a collaborative effort with the Cedar Falls Blue Zones Project to coordinate and execute two volunteer fairs in Cedar Falls.

Cedar Falls non-profit organizations have been invited to attend both events. On February 19 community members are invited to attend the fair at Western Home Communities Windridge site from 10:00 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. On February 27 community members are invited to attend the fair at NewAldaya Lifescapes from 3:00 p.m. to 4:30 p.m.  

Volunteerism is a big component of the Blue Zones Project and is another way to live happier, healthier lives. These events are a significant opportunity for local nonprofit organizations to connect with citizens, matching specific volunteer needs to volunteers' skills and personal interests.

Both events are open to the public. Community members are encouraged to attend.

The mission of the Volunteer Center of Cedar Valley is to promote and support effective volunteerism and to serve as the resource and coordination center for volunteers and community partnerships. 

Please contact Lauren Finke at the Volunteer Center of Cedar Valley to express interest in volunteering. Opportunities are flexible. To secure additional volunteer opportunities call the Volunteer Center of Cedar Valley at 272-2087. Volunteer opportunities may also be accessed at www.vccv.org.
