Heifer Volunteer Cluster Gathering for Connecticut Saturday, March 20, 2010

Join us for the second annual

Heifer Volunteer Cluster Gathering for Connecticut

Saturday, March 20, 2010

10 a.m. - 2 p.m.

First Church of Christ
250 Main St.
Wethersfield, CT


This will be an informative and inspiring gathering for seasoned and new volunteers and for those interested in learning more about Heifer and our volunteer opportunities.
You won’t want to miss these helpful sessions:

Ø Successes and challenges of the Volunteer Community Groups in CT
Ø Volunteer Training on engaging and effective presentations and displays
Ø Growing our Volunteer Communities and sharing ideas on how to bring Heifer into your community
Ø Heifer Updates and new resources for volunteers, schools and congregations

Please bring a lunch. Beverages and dessert will be provided. During lunch, we will watch and discuss Heifer’s new DVD, 12 Stones, a beautiful and evocative film about the remarkable transformation of a group of women in southern Nepal. You’ll see how empowering women can bring an entire village out of poverty, and also witness Heifer’s approach to creating hope and self-reliance one community at a time.
