A host of local agencies are putting out the call for new volunteers.
The public is being invited to explore the many possibilities to give back at the upcoming Volunteer Showcase to be held at Hidden Hills Golf and Country Club Nov. 1.
The event will highlight the wide range of volunteer opportunities available in Chatham-Kent, and it may be of particular interest to students, retirees, and others who want to offer the gift of time.
Many non-profit agencies are in need of volunteers after a couple of tough pandemic years impacted how volunteers served the community.
Some of the volunteer experiences available include driving, serving with the vulnerable and working with youth and seniors.
Representatives from local organizations will be on hand to answer questions about recruitment and how people can best use their skills to help others.
Organizations that are interested in participating are asked to pre-register with Family Service Kent. Deadline for registration is Oct. 26.
