I once heard someone say, “Volunteers are not unpaid because the work they do is worthless but because it is priceless”. April 10 – 16 is National Volunteer Appreciation Week and one more opportunity to give thanks to those who give their time to forward your efforts. A small token of appreciation goes a long way to bonding ongoing volunteer relationships. A thank you gift in the form of a jotter, useful tote or a travel mug is something that is not a large investment but has a value that the volunteer will cherish. Custom imprinted items are memorable and something a volunteer can take away from the service or event and know you value their work. Don’t miss the chance to say thanks to those who care about your mission.

With flu season knocking on our door and the H1N1 virus affecting more and more people each day it is important to protect yourself from these harmful viruses. Besides washing your hands, and getting the proper shots, hand sanitizer is the most effective way to kill the bacteria that comes from simply touching everyday items. You may think public restrooms are the most unsanitary places ever; although this is true ATMs, elevator buttons, and phone receivers contain just as much if not more bacteria. Yuck!
