THE VOLUNTEER EXPERIENCE Why did you choose Mission Accomplished Transition Services The purpose of Mission Accomplished and the energy of its founder, Carmen Duncan, pulled me in. I like being part of something that supports students as they embark on academic and career pursuits.
What was your experience as a volunteer?
Mary-Ellen Piche Volunteer C.A.R.E Initiative Advisor
Which program, event, or project did you help with? I participate in the C.A.R.E. Initiative, a program that provides school supplies, bedding and toiletries to students entering college and vocational schools.
I had the opportunity to tell students about the program, encourage them to apply and review the applications to select the awardees. It was rewarding and fun to interact with the students.
