We have a casino night in March, two walks in May, three half marathons in the summer, and many other activities throughout the year. The work mainly consists of clerical tasks such as creating and maintaining an accurate database, updating our social media sites, reaching out to the local community, and assisting staff during events. This is a great opportunity for individuals who need to complete community service hours because we work with your schedule. This position also looks great on a resume!
