In collaboration with Barrington Area Volunteer Connection
The Barrington Area is home to a wealth of local non-profits, making a world of difference. Volunteer Connection LIVE combines a volunteer fair, donation day, and community networking. Join us to connect with nonprofits: learn about volunteer opportunities and local resources, and donate requested items.
New this year: attendees can earn raffle tickets from participating nonprofits; we'll draw names for gift cards to local eateries.
Drop in any time between 1 and 4 PM. Register if you'd like a reminder; then stop at the BAVC table, tell us you registered, and we'll give you your first raffle ticket!
