NAM to Host 2023 Volunteer Appreciation Luncheon

April 04 2023

Northwest Assistance Ministries will host the annual Volunteer Appreciation Luncheon on Thursday, April 20, 2023 at Shirley Acres at 11:30 am.

April 16-22 is National Volunteer Appreciation Week. NAM has a long history of utilizing volunteers to help deliver programs and services. Last year, over 3,400 volunteers served at NAM in one capacity or another.

"NAM would not and could not exist without our valuable volunteers," said CEO / President Les Cave.

A major part of the Volunteer Appreciation Luncheon is the awarding of the Paula and Mark Stoebner Volunteer of the Year Award. This year the award will go to the four (4) chapters of the National Charity League that serve NAM. The four NCL Chapters were the leading volunteer group for NAM this past year.

For more information or to RSVP for the Volunteer Appreciation Luncheon, please email Events@namonline.org.
