We need volunteers!

It's a new year, and we all have resolutions we are looking to keep.  One resolution I make and build upon every year can be described with simple language, but takes a lot of hard work.  That resolution is "do good."  This means helping others, and bettering the world around us, even through small actions.  One way you can "do good" and make serious, visible change in the life of a foster child is by volunteering with A Family For Every Child's "Family Finding" program!  We encourage all individuals to volunteer for any position they like, which includes file mining, internet searching, calling/engagement, family tree building, and even clerical support such as creating training booklets and informative pamphlets.  We are in need of more calling and engagement volunteers!  This role requires you to contact found family members, calling them and discovering new connections, and being an integral team member in deciding who is a good contact for the child.  You get to work closely with AFFEC staff as well as caseworkers working with foster children.  While this role requires diligent work, it is very rewarding and allows you to see the kind of "good" that can be accomplished!  If you have any questions, please email the Family Finding Director at caitlin@afamilyforeverychild.org.  It's a new year, let's make it a good one!
