The International Rescue Committee - Boise is always in need of volunteers to help as family mentors to our refugee families and to help in various capacities in our office. Take a look at www.theirc.org/Boise. Thanks!

An invitation to volunteer at the shelter on Friday night (May 22). I am shift manager that night (a rare happening) and would love to have your company! A way to try out volunteering if you've been thinking about it. Start time is 5:30 pm - end time ranges from 10 - midnight. It's fun (I promise)! Email me at info@interfaithsanctuary.org or via FB.

The current e-newsletter went out last night with other shifts and volunteers opportunities. If you didn't receive this, here's the link:
