A Message from the Executive Director

Debbie May-Johnson

We are pleased to showcase our vital volunteers who were recognized for their service at the United Way of Summit County's 9th Annual Volunteer Celebration in April.  Sergio Carano, Donna Early, Kevin Hawes, Svetla Morrison, Cherri Passell, Carl Pfromm and Stephanie Siciarz contribute countless hours in teaching, creating homes for new refugees and finding the resources and materials to do this, as well as providing leadership on the International Institute’s Board of Directors.    As a nonprofit, we know that volunteers are essential to the good work that we do.   They provide the valuable resources to fill gaps in people power and assist in developing community partnerships that advance our mission.  They are a precious treasure that allow us to meet the overwhelming needs of our community.     

 

Volunteering is a core value of American life.   It is our individual passion that motivates us to become engaged within our community.  The sense of helping one another to make a better world gives each of us the satisfaction of “paying it forward.” 

 

Volunteers enrich all of our lives knowing and working with them. We congratulate our “ambassadors’ for their great work and contributions they make on a daily basis to the Institute and celebrate ordinary people doing extraordinary things to improve our community. 

 

To look at the different volunteer opportunities with the Institute, please review and complete the volunteer application on our website, www.iiakron.org or contact the International Institute at 330-376-5106 for more information.


Sincerely,


Debbie May-Johnson
