Mountain Volunteer Project Seeking Community Volunteers


 
Mountain Volunteer Project is Seeking Community Volunteers
 
Chester, CA – We are currently seeking Community Volunteers who will become part of a pool of volunteers that are able and willing to help out at community events. The Plumas/Lassen area has many local area events that often require a large number of volunteers. Becoming a volunteer is easy, just contact a Mountain Volunteer Project Recruiter and they will walk you through the simple process.
 
The Mountain Volunteer Project (MVP) is a new volunteer organization that is seeking to help recruit, train, and place volunteers with nonprofits in our communities. The goals of the organization are to foster a sense of community involvement, create service opportunities, and provide support for nonprofit and community service providers.
 
This project was formed out of a need to help connect community members to groups and organizations that need more involvement, resources, and general assistance from our communities. Rural communities in Northern California are struggling. Nonprofit organizations, churches, social services, and other groups and organizations seek to fill gaps in the needs of the people that live in and near our towns, yet there are seemingly never enough resources to go around. As a result, services are not getting to the people that need them.
 
Many people want to help, they want to donate their time and their resources towards bettering the plight of their communities, yet it can be exhausting, frustrating, and difficult to match up to a community organization. Many barriers can exist, from knowing who is looking for volunteers, when they need volunteers, training requirements, and networking and making connections to these organizations are but a few of the obstacles faced by those seeking to volunteer.
 
The Mountain Volunteer Project has as its core mission to find and recruit volunteers while working with nonprofit organizations to help fill gaps in their needs as they seek to fill gaps in the community’s needs.
 
Community Volunteers are the first part of our project and will create the backbone of the organization. Join us today and help us build this organization into something that can help to benefit all of us and you will truly be an MVP!
