Volunteer Connections

While most of our volunteers' primary focus is our guests, the hosts in volunteer connections are responsible for taking care of all of the other volunteers. They create a warm, safe and inviting place for our volunteers to connect with one another. These connections make our volunteers a more effective team as they go out and serve others.
