| Thursday, June 3, 2004 Oops, I have been a most inattentive blogger this week. I've been busy serving! OK, not entirely true. I have been busy, though. And it has been a short week. I'm trying to get the Cans for Habitat program rolling here in Worcester. I would like to set the start date for August st to coincide with the start of school. I sent information to a church that had called looking for youth group activities. And Monday I'm meeting with Assumption College, and I'll be pushing the Cans program in a big way. I also think it would be cool to get all of the campuses to participate in a Sleep-Out in Institude Park in the fall. That would be cool and highly visible. It would take a bit of coordinating. We would have to get city approval and some support from the police department. Due to rain I cancelled the volunteer group yesterday, and of coures it ended up not raining very much at all. Figures. Oh well, what can you do? I don't know why I can't get myself motivated to work more on these ideas of mine. I think I'm an idea person. I think, and others do. |
| Here it is: the continuing saga of my experience as an AmeriCorps Vista volunteer in Worcester, Massachusetts. I would love to hear from any other AmeriCorps volunteers or nonprofit employees--especially volunteer coordinators. Email me--tell me what you think, or share your own experiences. Together we'll survive this crazy world of NGOs! |
