Volunteer Opportunity:
The Mazzoni Center's Marketing and Development Department has a table at Philadelphia Pride this Sunday and is looking for volunteers from 11-5. They don't expect volunteers to stay the whole time, but any volunteers to man the table in that time frame would be greatly appreciated. They are advertising their new building at Broad and Bainbridge and the health services they provide to the LGBT community. You can meet them at Penn's Landing at 11. Members can go together/ in groups! If you are thinking about or want to go, reach out to Michael Kelly at [email protected] . Thank you everyone!

Hi everyone! This summer we have two volunteer opportunities for anyone that would like to take part in community service, if you're here in Philly or nearby:
Sign up to volunteer with Philly Aids Thrift here: http://phillyaidsthrift.com/ways-to-give/volunteer/
or go by the store a little south of South Street to inquire about volunteering.
You can also go to monthly dinners at the Dornsife Center for Neighborhood Partnerships at 35th and Spring Garden. These happen on the first Tuesday of every month from 5-8 and you are welcome to stop by and observe and/or express an interest for helping out and one dinner or multiple dinners.

The Philly AIDS Thrift Volunteer is the “first impression” between our retail store and the public that supports our mission. Volunteers are needed to assist during store hours – 7 days a week. Join our extended family where you’ll have the opportunity to:
