Volunteer turned volunteer career?

6/5
7:30

So I am in the process of seeking out volunteer opportunities that I am able to do. There are a few things at the base, but I like to not just limit myself, regardless of who pays attention. I was searching a volunteer website and found a couple that seemed like they would be something I could do. One was for an animal shelter, the other for a charity that has their pilot program based out of Colorado. So after exchanging a couple of e-mails I found myself on the phone talking to the founder of the Military Family Voices program. We discussed what the entire program is based of, how much it costs per family to receive their services and what my role will be to help them. I'm actually excited to start on this and get it initiated and up and going here in Wichita at McConnell. Still in the planning phases of what will occur and how it will all fall into place, I am learning and will collaborate with the base to create something that will eventually be at every military installation. So, kind of excited doesn't cover it. :) Can't wait to do this, it is seriously going to be an unforgettable experience for each and every person that participates in it.
