*** How to Get Involved in CPR ***

VOLUNTEER

your time for the CPR Inner Circle

 

Do you have a passion to change things for others – to ensure that the troubles you have had don�t befall anyone else - especially your sons or daughters? You can make a difference with your time and talents. CPR is a 100% volunteer organization and without your help we can�t provide services to members or develop the critical mass needed for reform.

 

Listed on the back side of this from are the volunteer opportunities. Please mark all categories that you are interested in and return the form to CPR. You can help a little or you can help a lot.  Most volunteers find that the more they give, the more they get out of the organization.

 

But what we NEED MOST are people who can:

  Consistent do-ers who are willing to make a commitment to one specific activity that is done routinely for at least 6 months

o      Whether you have 1 hour a month or 1 hour a day, there are projects CPR needs your help with.

  Attend the volunteer update meetings each month (may be held for 30 minutes following the CPR Sunday night meetings)

  Leaders who are willing to help coordinate the efforts of others who can help on a specific project or task force
