As I mentioned earlier, I recently just got a new job. I am doing something that is a little different than what I went to school for. I was hired by a non profit organization in our town. It was started by a fabulous hard working woman who has a passion for two things: volunteering & kids.
The organization has this mission: to grow the next generation of socially responsible citizens by engaging youth in community outreach.
I am really excited to learn so much about our community and develop relationships with kids & adults who love being a part of it. My boss (the founder) is absolutely adorable & so much fun to work with. I was hired to help her strengthen the organization. I just got my own little office, and as I mentioned, that makes me really happy!
It was a busy week of meetings, introductions, setting up & getting acquainted. We work really closely with the small businesses (cafes, restaurants) in our town, so we got to visit a lot of those & have our meetings there!
And today - TL came in and helped me do a little more set up in my office!! He's excited for me, too, and that always makes things more fun!
I am sure I will be sharing a lot of what we do on here in the future. :)
We have a busy weekend coming up! I have my Jr League Crab Feed tomorrow night, my 10K race Sunday morning, and our super bowl party on Sunday. I am so excited to have a full house of family & friends :)
Hope you have a great weekend. And if you're covered in snow, stay safe & warm!!
{love this}
