What would you and your organization do without your volunteers?

Here at Flagler Volunteer Services, we know how important volunteerism is in our community. Most of the places that utilize volunteers would not be sustainable without volunteer help. It is our pleasure each year to recognize volunteers that do outstanding work and have huge impacts on local organizations and on the community at large.  This year we will be hosting a Volunteer Appreciation Breakfast on Tuesday, April 28, 2020 at the Palm Coast Community Center.

April is National Volunteer Month.  This month is dedicated to honoring all of the volunteers in our communities as well as encouraging volunteerism throughout the month.  Volunteers come in all shapes and sizes. They pick a cause and make a difference in someone’s life. Sometimes the difference is a drop in the bucket. Other times it creates a tidal wave of change.

Flagler Volunteer Services is excited to celebrate National Volunteer Month by recognizing the volunteer efforts in Flagler County at our Volunteer Recognition Breakfast or Lunch on April 26^th at the Flagler County Emergency Operation’s Center.  THIS EVENT IS BY INVITE ONLY FOR VOLUNTEERS WHO HAVE REPORTED MORE THAN 25 HOURS DURING THE PAST YEAR AND ARE REGISTERED TO ATTEND!!!

NOMINATIONS ARE CURRENTLY BEING ACCEPTED for volunteers that make a difference to your organization for one of the following awards:

• Volunteer of the Year – honor a volunteer whose dedicated service has had a significant impact on the agency that they serve and/or the community at large.
