About the Volunteer Fair

The Volunteer Fair took place on September 20, 2007 at Daytona Beach Community College from 11am – 1pm. 

The goal of the fair was to connect potential volunteers with the agencies in the community.  This annual event once again saw an amazing turnout from college students, community members, and the nonprofit agencies in need of volunteers. 

Over 40 agencies participated this year.  Agencies and volunteers had a wonderful time getting to know each other and the opportunities available.   

Potential volunteers and agency representatives were treated to lunch by Riverside Bank.  Nearly 300 lunches were served in the 3 hour period!
