Imagine yourself as part of a group of caring people with the opportunity to decide how best to use funding that benefits people in need and your community. Imagine being able to increase the impact that money has through community involvement, awareness, additional funds raised and the caring work of many hands.
Chapter leaders with the Northern Utah Chapter of Thrivent Financial for Lutherans do just that with the Care Abounds in Communities program! And with chapter leaders elections just around the corner, the time to get involved is NOW! Our chapter will have several leadership opportunities for 2009. The only requirements are: being a Thrivent Financial member; a desire to help people; and a few hours per month volunteer time.
We very much need you on the chapter leadership board--without a full board, our chapter will not qualify for the funding that helps people and our community. Help us take full advantage of this unique opportunity to significantly impact our community and contact Dave Thomas,801-392-9810 or email websteward@qwestoffice.net today to find out more and add your name to the election ballot.
I myself was reluctant to become a member of the board, but I have found it to be greatly rewarding to help fund community projects. Our Chapter has raised money for a family who lost everthing they had, including a daughter, in a tragic fire; funded a bullet proof vest for a Brigham City K-9 officer; helped mail gifts to our servicemen deployed overseas; helped build homes and provide Vacation Bible School in Mexico, and much, much more.
If serving on the chapter leadership board does not work for you but you'd like to be involved or volunteer in some capacity, there are many other volunteer opportunities, both short-term and longer-term, available as well. Please contact us and we'll describe how you can make a difference through the Thrivent chapter system in a way that fits into your schedule.
