Robert Wilkins, President and CEO of The YMCA of the East Bay, the
largest deployer of local volunteers, has called to action a request for
volunteerism throughout the Bay Area, with the recently launched “You Are the
Difference” collaborative campaign.
This campaign is designed to encourage the public to volunteer a few
hours, this summer, to help ANY worthy organization that is doing good in their
community. Community partners raising up their collective voices, along with
the Y, to say that volunteerism matters include: the Chabot Space and Science
Center, Richmond Community Foundation, East Bay Regional Park District,
Pleasanton Community of Character Collaborative and KRON 4.
You can follow the campaign on YMCA of the East Bay’s social media
outlets: Facebook Twitter
Pinterest
(and let us know how you are volunteering in your community by using the
hashtags #YVolunteer, #VolunteerEastBay and #GiveBack @YMCAEastBay
To find a volunteer organization in need, the Y is suggesting the
public connect with any of these volunteer organizations: Bay Area
Volunteer Information Center, Volunteer
Center of the East Bay, Hands on Bay Area and Volunteer
Match.
