Needs that Cannot beMet without Your Help
Staffing is our greatest challenge in the midst of this Covid crisis. Many volunteers left and have not returned. Interviewing new candidates for employment requires increasing hourly wage and finding qualified candidates. With your support we will continue to work on seeking new hires.
