As we begin 2025, many of us are motivated to make positive changes—whether it’s adopting a healthier lifestyle, taking on new challenges, or exploring exciting opportunities. This year, consider channeling that motivation into volunteering at local organizations that greatly benefit from community support.
The Water Street Mission and the IU13 Community Education Center are both seeking dedicated volunteers to help them fulfill their missions. The Water Street Mission provides essential services to individuals experiencing homelessness, offering meals, shelter, and programs aimed at fostering independence. Volunteers play a vital role in supporting these initiatives, whether through direct service or by assisting with organizational tasks.
Similarly, the IU13 Community Education Center is committed to enhancing the educational opportunities available to residents. They are looking for volunteers to help with tutoring, mentoring, and various community outreach programs. Your involvement can make a significant impact on the lives of others and foster a sense of community.
Consider stepping forward this year to volunteer your time and skills, and be part of a positive change in your community.
