SUMMARY:Teen Volunteer Information Night
DESCRIPTION:C.I.T.Y. of Support is a local nonprofit organization with lots of potential for growth meeting the needs of families with children in therapy. \n  \nWe have seen great value in partnering with teen volunteers over the past few months\, and we are hoping to build this relationship with a new opportunity.  Together with our current executive team\, we would like to explore the idea of creating a Teen Advisory Board that takes initiative in designing and implementing a variety of community projects. \n  \nWe are hoping to identify motivated teen volunteers (aged 14+) who are interested in not only helping to build our C.I.T.Y\, but also in building their leadership\, program development\, marketing\, fundraising\, and collaboration skills. \n  \nIf you are interested in learning more about this mutually-beneficial opportunity\, we invite you to attend an Information Night at the GENEROC.I.T.Y. Toy Shop on Tuesday\, 12/30 from 6:00-7:00pm.  Please RSVP here. \n  \nWe appreciate your support\, and please reach out with any questions: volunteer@cityofsupport.org
