About Us
Hi, I’m Barbara. Previously a project manager for a computer consulting company, I became a full-time mother AND “professional volunteer” in 2003. When I’m not spending time with my wonderful family or volunteering, I love helping others trying to be more organized and efficient so they can volunteer too!
Let me be your new friend to help you find inspiration & ideas to staying in this world of volunteerism. The world needs you, so grab a cup of coffee and look around to see if I can help.
My Volunteer Experiences
What have I done in the volunteer world? Well…I did start small…and then people started asking me to take on bigger roles and I figured what the heck…I’ll try it for a year and see what happens. 🙂

Guiding Thoughts
What you put into something is what you get back
- Only give what you have time for, if that that's just an hour a month, that's great!
- Don't stress if you have to say no to everything that people ask you to do, there is always next year
- Try something outside of your comfort zone, you might like it!
