This year, we invite the community to check out board openings with 26 organizations, all in one place, at the Deschutes Brewery Pub, 1044 NW Bond Street, in downtown Bend., on Wednesday, May 11 from 4-6pm.
Guests may come at any time during this free event to visit with organizations that serve people in need, the arts, animals, youth, veterans, Latino families, and other community outreach. Please check the Volunteer Connect website at www.volunteerconnectnow.org for a list of the participating organizations and for other volunteer opportunities.
