Have you been thinking about volunteering in Brooklyn?

Brooklyn Community Board 6 with the staff of the offices of Assembly Member Jim Brennan, Assembly Member Joan Millman and New York Methodist Hospital, has been busy at work planning their third Community Volunteer Fair.

On May 13th, from 6:00pm to 8:30pm, over 90 organizations which depend on volunteers – organizations that address the youth, the elderly, housing, the arts, the environment and our community – will gather at the brand new Park Slope Armory Recreation Center, on 15th Street between 7th/8th Avenues, to make themselves available to meet people interested in volunteering their time and talent.

At each of their past events in 2005 and 2008, we saw over 500 visitors come through the door.  Countless successful matches were made between enthusiastic volunteers and organizations in need.
