Kaitlyn Kennedy joins the VCCV

Kaitlyn Kennedy is a new Program Coordinator at the Volunteer Center of Cedar Valley. She currently lives in Cedar Falls and is a Jesup High School graduate. She has worked in several customer service jobs since high school and recently worked as a child-care assistant for Grin and Grow Daycare.

Kaitlyn was uncertain about her educational plan following high school, so she chose to work. As she began to discover more about herself, she realized how much she enjoyed helping other people and serving in ways that could help. Kaitlyn experienced volunteering with World Vision and the Kohl’s Cares program where she became more involved with volunteer services that required assistance. She has been involved in church activities and serving there as well. After discovering how much she enjoyed service involvement, Kaitlyn decided to pursue a degree in Human Services at Kaplan University.

Kaplan offered Kaitlyn the opportunity to work with the Volunteer Center of Cedar Valley while pursuing her degree. Kaitlyn is a motivated person who is passionate about helping people and enjoys learning about networking and service throughout the community. The opportunity to work as a Program Coordinator for the VCCV is a great fit for her as she is able to learn more about her field of study and gain experience serving others while expanding volunteerism in the Cedar Valley. Kaitlyn looks forward to embracing this opportunity to work with VCCV and the community.

Away from school and the VCCV, Kaitlyn enjoys reading. Her faith is a big part of her life. Kaitlyn also takes pleasure in singing, nature, and photography, and enjoys the parks in the Cedar Valley.
