“What I most like about volunteering is the enviro “What I most like about volunteering is the environment; everyone is so welcoming and helpful. I also love working with the community and meeting the variety of people we have enter the building…

... It’s hard to find something I enjoy doing so much”.

This #VolunteersWeek, we’d like to shine a spotlight on our wonderful volunteers! Simply put, the GI couldn’t run without them. 💙

From sitting on our Board of Trustees, volunteering in our Library, setting up for events, running coach visits, helping in our office, to giving talks at member coffee mornings, the ways our volunteers support us is endless. 

Here’s to our team of amazing volunteers! 👏
