Volunteers Needed!!

 | Mentoring Program Coordinator
|
 | If you are interesting in this or any of these FCC-SD Team positions and would like to talk
about them, please email our FCC-SD President Melissa at FCCSanDiegoCA@gmail.com
|
|
 | Please help us with our events!
For those families who are waiting, this is a wonderful way to meet other families who are in the waiting stage and who share your excitement!
Volunteers are typically needed to help plan the event, for "set-up" before the event and "take-down" and cleaning after the event, to help with the crafts for the children, and for any games or other activities.
Please email the FCCSD discussion group if you would like to volunteer for any of these events.
Any ideas and suggestions are appreciated! |
