This week is National Volunteer Week, a chance to honor and thank the wonderful people who give
countless hours of personal time to volunteer in their communities. Whether it be feeding the homeless, cleaning our beaches or making hats for cancer fighters, people are out there making a difference–serving and strengthening our communities. Volunteers give the greatest gifts of all–their time, their energy and their hearts. This week is our chance to THANK YOU for your contributions and your acts of kindness!
We are especially thankful for our amazing community of Jessie Rees Foundation volunteers. Our volunteers are at the core of our foundation and at the heart of what we do.
The Jessie Rees Foundation is operated by 90% of volunteers, all donating their time to support Jessie’s mission of supporting kids fighting cancer.
At any given day at the Jessie Rees Foundation, you will find volunteers stuffing JoyJars, teams and clubs hosting JoyDrives, kids in their communities advocating for childhood cancer awareness and Joy Squad members spreading Joy to kids fighting cancer all over the world.
This week, National Volunteer Week, we THANK YOU, our amazing volunteers, for all that you do! Together, we can continue fulfilling Jessie’s wish of encouraging ALL kids fighting cancer to Never Ever Give Up–and that would not be possible without you!
