JustServe.org volunteers have served up over 750 hours of service. The newly launched website designed to bring together people who need service with those looking for opportunities to serve, designated last month as JustServe April, and things are looking up around Hollister, best stated by those served such as San Benito County Historical Park Director Delbert Doty.
“We are very grateful for the wonderful volunteers that came to the San Benito County Historical Park on Saturday, April 20, and helped with several much needed projects. The help provided over the last several years for the SBCHS has greatly improved a valuable community resource.
Program Director of Chamberlain’s Children Center said: “The JustServe volunteers committed themselves to some tough projects. When the day was done, I took a moment to look over the finished projects and breath in the strong sense of community support we were left with.”
Robert Freiri, Chamberlains’s Executive Director added, “We are very fortunate to have a group of volunteers that have now worked with us for three straight years. Each of the three years, we had some very complex projects…and the volunteers have always come through for us…our campus is transforming into something very special!!”
The 13 organizations served during April, in Hollister and surrounding areas were: Chamberlain Children’s Center, The San Benito County Historical Park, Sea Otter Classic Ham Radio Communications, Pat’s Place, Boy Scout Merit Badge Counseling, San Benito High Baler Education, Community Food Bank, Emmaus House, Hollister Air Show Ham Radio Communications, ARES Volunteer Emergency Communications, the Coast Guard Auxiliary and Community Center.
