This month we have a brief summary of our 5th Annual Christmas Party and an introduction to our Inspire 3.11 Campaign, 5 years after the disaster where we redefine what it means to volunteer. We also have a volunteer feature from David Iguaz and an introduction to Place to Grow's Veggie Box!

Best,
Norman Grant, HR, Membership and Volunteer Manager
