Volunteers Needed!

Volunteers Needed

In his State of the Union address in 2002, President Bush encouraged each of us to volunteer 2 years or 4,000 hours to service. DDI VANTAGE has many opportunities for volunteers. Volunteers may choose to offer their services a few hours per week, once a month or even a one time service. We can work it out.
