Upcoming Volunteer Projects

PVC's summer & fall project schedule features a wide range of non-profit organizations and activities - serving a meal to the needy at Food Gatherers' Community Kitchen, helping at Dawn Farm's annual Jamboree, staffing silent auctions at Washtenaw Literacy's annual VIP fundraiser, painting at the NEW Center, and more. We'll present upcoming volunteer projects at the September meeting (7:30pm 9/10 at the NEW Center), so drop in and sign up to help out!

PVC Keeps Helping Washtenaw Literacy

We earned an big "Thank you!" from Washtenaw Literacy for helping last year's World in a Basket auction gross over $85,000 - the same as 2007, and an impressive feat indeed with the economy! This is great news for them, and will go a long way toward keeping the lessons going for their over 600 adult learners.

PVC looks forward to helping with World in a Basket again this year, both with publicity mailing, and at the big event itself - Friday, October 1st, 2010.

PVC Paints for Artrain USA

We received a wonderful thank-you note from Artrain USA for our help painting part of their offices in Ann Arbor's NEW Center. As always, our volunteers were ordinary folks, not professional painters or artists. Members with more experience on painting projects were happy to teach.

Thank You to PVC from the Ann Arbor Symphony Orchestra

The Ann Arbor Symphony Orchestra sent their heartfelt thanks to PVC members and visitors for helping to label almost 5,000 postcards at several of our recent monthly meetings. The postcards have promoted the A2SO's Series Concerts, PVC's help has freed up scarce professional staff time for several more specialized jobs.
