BLOOD matters - Société Canadienne de l'Hémophilie

TCOR
We sat and chatted over a coffee, and
he was inspired by the information I
provided. I would highly recommend
that other members of the
TCOR community volunteer
with HealthPartners, as it is
a great way to overcome any
fears one may have about
public speaking!
As a board member, I was
pushed out of my comfort
zone, and learned new skills
that I would not otherwise have
learned. I was introduced to the process
of passing resolutions as well as
the budgetary process. The people I
volunteer with at Bingo are very caring
and dedicated individuals, and
over time we have become a tightknit
group that enjoy each other’s
company. Our Saturday morning sessions
are ideal for anyone interested
in volunteering, as it is not that busy.
There are many opportunities
to volunteer with TCOR,
regardless of whether you are a
board member or not.
Besides, once the session is over, you
still have the rest of your weekend to
spend time with family and friends.
The money earned from Bingo is one
of TCOR’s highest revenue generators,
and volunteers are necessary to
ensure that TCOR will receive this
vital revenue in the future.
I find volunteering with TCOR
to be a truly rewarding experience.
Volunteers are able to expand their
skill set and forge great friendships.
The future of the TCOR organization
will continue to hinge on the strength
of its volunteers, and I highly recommend
and challenge you to look into
volunteering in the future and push
yourself out of your comfort zone.
Who knows...you may discover a hidden
talent, and make a difference to
the future of TCOR and the CHS. I
hope to see you at a Bingo session
or on the board in the near future.
“Never doubt that a small group of
committed people can change the
world. Indeed, it is the only thing that
ever has.” ~ Margaret Mead
