[Community] Re: [Imc] iHelp 2009

Hi All, 

I intend to make a proposal for this via community connections- if you have projects you'd like volunteers to work on or are willing to help coordinate this, please let me know (off list)!

To Whom It May Concern:I am writing to you regarding participation in the University of Illinois’ Homecoming Volunteer Project called iHelp. This year, it will take place on Friday, October 2, 2009. We would love to send students to Urbana-Champaign Independent Media Center to help you in any way possible. Here are more details:
iHelp is a one-day volunteer project that sends more that 1,500 University of Illinois students into the community to help with a variety of different activities. This day of service not only offers assistance in large numbers but also unites students all over campus and creates a positive impact within the Champaign-Urbana community.
I am writing to see if Urbana-Champaign Independent Media Center would be interested in hosting a group of students. We encourage agencies to “think outside of the box” with projects that they might not normally be able to complete, but with a large group of students, could get done or improved within a 2-3 hour range since students will volunteer approximately from 3pm-6pm. These projects include painting, grounds clean-ups, group projects, or other tasks like stuffing envelopes or helping at an event. More importantly, this is a great opportunity to recruit student volunteers for your agency as well as educate college students about the C-U community and the services that you offer. 
More information is available at http://www.uiaa.org/urbana/saa/ihelp.htmlLet me know if you would like to work together with us on this great event! Please respond to Lauren Whalley with project details including: location, number of volunteers needed, and a contact person for the volunteer project by September 11, 2009. 
With your assistance, iHelp will continue to make a difference in the Champaign-Urbana community, and I thank you in advance for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Lauren Whalley
