Virginia Tech has announced a new initiative called VT-ENGAGE (www.engage.vt.edu) to honor the victims of April 16, 2007 and their commitment to service worldwide and reaffirm its commitment to its motto, Ut Prosim (That I May Serve).

You can use Volunteer Solutions to post the volunteer needs of your group or to find volunteer opportunities.  If you live outside the New River Valley-Virginia Tech community, enter the zip code of the community where you live in the United States.  The volunteer opportunities listed closest to where you live will be listed.

The goal for the Virginia Tech Community: sign up for and perform 300,000 hours of community service by the end of the spring semester.  The goal for Virginia Tech alumni: pledge and perform 300,000 hours of community service by the end of the spring semester.  Those wishing to volunteer can pledge their hours on Virginia Tech's VT Engage website, (www.engage.vt.edu).

As a community builder for human services in the New River Valley, the United Way of Montgomery, Radford & Floyd (UWMRF) has an increasing need for resources to support these efforts. Such programs include the one you are using right now - Volunteer Solutions - and other volunteer support efforts, Information and Referral support, a growing Gifts in Kind program, a Prescription Medication Discount Card program, the FEMA Emergency Food & Shelter program, mental health support services in the aftermath of April 16, and others. A grant seeker and writer is needed to help us research and write successful grants for support of these programs. We currently subscribe to GrantStation which the volunteer/s would have access to in volunteering for UWMRF. You could volunteer from the comfort of your own home and be appreciated by MANY!!!

Volunteers would be asked to meet with the executive director to learn about the local United Way's community building programs and receive printed reference material. Prior experience with successful grant writing is a plus. A sincere interest in improving human services in the New River Valley is a must.
