APCC is widely known for batting above our weight. Part of the reason our very talented but relatively small staff can cover so much ground is the help we get from our dedicated volunteers. Over 300 volunteers give their time to support our work in every way imaginable. Volunteers collect water samples, work on our landscape, represent APCC at public events, take the photos that document our work, help with mailings and so much more.
Simply put, APCC would not have the breadth of programs or have the impact we do but for our volunteers. While we are holding our annual volunteer appreciation event this week to thank those in attendance personally, this is a great time to thank our volunteers more broadly.
From what I hear, our volunteers find their service rewarding for several reasons that include making a difference on behalf of the environment, learning about resources as they work alongside staff and other volunteers, and getting to know our wonderful staff. Those are all great reasons for those who volunteer to continue to do so and for those who have not yet had the experience to give it a try.
With more of you at our side, there are few limits on what we can accomplish for Cape Cod.
