Are you a teen or adult who would like to volunteer your time and talent to help a worthy organization, but you don’t know where to start? Fort Bend County Libraries’ George Memorial Library will have a “Volunteer Fair” on Saturday, June 14, from 2:00 to 4:00 pm, in the Bohachevsky Gallery on the lower level of the library, located at 1001 Golfview in Richmond.
Representatives from a variety of local organizations and agencies will be on hand to share information about their programs, services, and volunteer opportunities, and to answer any questions. Find out where your talent, skills, and time are most needed, and how you can make a difference in your own community.
Some of the organizations that will be represented include the Mamie George Community Center, SIRE Therapeutic Horsemanship, George Ranch Historical Park, FBC Heritage Unlimited Museum, Fort Bend Partnership for Youth, Inc., International Transformation Foundation, TOM Help Center, Rosenberg Railroad Museum, Garage Arts Project, AmeriCorps Seniors: Foster Grandparent Program, the Fort Bend County Sheriff’s Office’s “You Are Not Along” project, and Fort Bend County Libraries.
