Dear Interested Volunteer,
Thank you for your interest in volunteering at The LeeShore Center. We have both "crisis" and "non-crisis" volunteer opportunities. Crisis volunteers work directly with victims of domestic violence and sexual assault and assisting shelter advocates. Non-crisis areas include, but are not limited to, office work, fun projects with our clients, helping with events and yard work. All volunteers are vital to the services that The LeeShore Center provides.
Please read the attached material. You will find a brief description of The LeeShore Center's history and programs, our mission statement, types of volunteer opportunities, and volunteer expectations. If you would like to become a volunteer, please complete the forms attached and return them to the Education and Training Assistant.
We will work with you to assess your strengths and decide where they can best be utilized to benefit you, our clients, and The LeeShore Center. We provide the Community Awareness Workshop on Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault twice a year for all new volunteers. The LeeShore Center could not fulfill our obligations to provide complete services without the much-appreciated help of our volunteers. If you have any questions or would like further information, please feel free to call me at 283-9479.
Haili Erikson
