Flagstaff Project CONNECT

Hello!

I am writing to let you know of an upcoming opportunity to volunteer your time and services to a very important Project, coming up, in Flagstaff.

Flagstaff Project CONNECT (FPC) is part of a nationwide movement to:

• Increase access to services for people who are homeless or at risk of being homeless

• Engage the community in finding a solution for homelessness

• Offer our community a one-day/one-location in which individuals and families who are without safe and stable homes can address basic needs and access critical services

• Engage and increase the involvement of individual volunteers, government, the faith based, the business and non-profit community to work together to provide access to services and long term solutions for people who are homeless and/or low income.

FPC is a one stop-shop serving near homeless/homeless with necessary services, including legal aid, immunizations, counseling services, job workshops, clothing and food, to name a few!

The next Flagstaff Project CONNECT will be held Saturday, March 26th, from 9AM to 2PM at Flagstaff Middle School. To make Flagstaff Project CONNECT a success, we need volunteers to help act as Guides, assist with Daycare or food service. There will be a training/orientation on Friday, March 25th at 5:30 PM at Flag Middle School to get you acquainted with how FPC works and what might be required of you!

Volunteering has always been an important aspect of my life – it has been a way to not only give back to the Community that supports me and my family, but also gives back to my heart, in being able to assist those who might need help.

I thank you in advance for considering Flagstaff Project CONNECT as a way to give back to your Community, and support those who simply need a little support during these times. If you are interested in donating your time and talent to our Project, please connect with me at the information, below.

Best,
