Summer is a time for backyard barbeques, a time for lounging at the beach and a time for Thirsty Thursdays! Join United Way staff and volunteers on Thursdays June 26, July 24 and August 21 from 4:30 to 7:30 p.m. at Jake’s Café, 529 Ontario Ave. in Sheboygan to learn about United Way of Sheboygan County and find out how you can get involved.
The Volunteer Center of Sheboygan County opened in 2009 as a collaborative initiative between Partners for Community Development (Partners) and the United Way of Sheboygan County, utilizing several key community volunteers and AmeriCorps volunteers. A group of interested local volunteer coordinators, businesses and organizations requested the creation of an organization to assist in recruiting, training and coordinating volunteer programs. Many other individuals and organizations, including schools, churches, non-profits and businesses, have been supportive of the Volunteer Center by serving on the Steering Committee or by partnering with the center.
