[Imcamericorps] [IMC] Want volunteers???

[Hope]

Hi all,

This is a wonderful opportunity.  The obvious problem is that we all have
numerous projects in place on specific dates and times that have already
been determined.  Is there anyway that we request help of volunteers on
specific dates with more notice to organize?

As for this particular opportunity, I could come up with some house
cleaning/ painting projects at C4A for that date.  I would only need 5 or
so.  I am trying to coordinate with our in house artist to clean her studio,
but have not received a response as of yet (that could be 5 more).

Another idea, would be to do a BIG Clean-up around the IMC and downtown
area.  I could help co-organize this, if someone else helps me.  This would
essentially, be to build on the  working relationship that Danielle has
established.

Let me know how to proceed.

Tina Hope
Outreach Coordinator for C4A
