This week is #VolunteerAppreciationWeek! Every day this week, we are going to highlight some amazing volunteers and how they make Periwinkle a better place!

Today’s Volunteer Spotlight is on: Marsha Bower! Marsha first volunteered at Camp Periwinkle in 2007, and her love and service for the organization and grown ever since! Marsha has been a Day Volunteer, a counselor at Camp YOLO and now serves on our Board of Directors and as the Making A Mark Committee Chair! Help us say thank you for Marsha for her service to Periwinkle!

Why does Marsha volunteer with Periwinkle? “To put it quite simply, the reason  I volunteer with Periwinkle is because I love the kids we service and I dig the Periwinkle staff!” – Marsha

Why does our Staff Love Volunteers? “Volunteers are the lifeblood of our organization. From the very beginning, Periwinkle has thrived on the love poured out by our volunteers. As a small staff, we love that each volunteer brings unique and immeasurable talents and benefits to Periwinkle, making it the strong organization it is today. The passion of our volunteers like Marsha, makes me excited to continue to work hard for the children and families we serve!” – Erin, Community Programs Coordinator
