Support Volunteer Action and Leadership Development
Posted on Mon, Jun 15, 2009 @ 03:08 PM
I've been a member of HandsOn Bay Area's Leadership Institute Fellowship Team (LIFT) for the past six months. HandsOn Bay Area (HOBA) creates opportunities for people to volunteer, learn and lead in the Bay Area. They manage 120 direct-service projects a month and offer educational programming to help volunteers become well-informed community leaders. Every year, their volunteer projects provide more than 50,000 hours of free service to 300 nonprofits across the Bay Area. Their projects are designed to meet critical community needs including education and literacy, HIV/AIDS, health and aging, homelessness and the environment.
The LIFT team is hosting a fundraiser for HOBA on June 24th from 5-8pm at Brickhouse Cafe in SOMA. Specials for attendees include: $3 draft beers, $1 off all bar food, $1 off all well/call liquor, $5 specialty HOBA cocktail. The bar is also donating 30% of all bar/food proceeds.
