Service Opportunities:

As Christmas approaches, several opportunities for volunteers have come to my attention. Here are just a few links to JustServe and other opportunities. If you know of other great projects from non-profit organizations, please let me know and I'll make sure the word gets out.

1) New on JustServe - more details on the gift donation drive to help children and families in need this Christmas are now up on JustServe. Please share this link with anyone you know who might be looking for a meaningful Christmas gift giving opportunity. Regional JustServe representatives David and Laura Jones are coordinating this project and can help out if there are any questions on this: https://www.justserve.org/projects/c8fd6c91-0ed2-48f2-948e-160bbd4036ae

2) "Light the World With Love!"
