Hi all, Just an FYI to save Monday, Feb. 7 for an opportunity to meet a number of non-profit organizations and learn more about the skills they're seeking. This "matchmaking session" is scheduled from 5 to 8 p.m. in the basement room in Jones Library. More information will be posted to the announcement list as soon as next Tuesday's (Jan. 25) networking event is concluded. Non-profits do hire subcontractors and they also seek volunteer assistance. Those who volunteer are the most likely to be hired when work evolves. Attending to provide awareness and contacts will be: David Foster, Director of Hampshire Programs for the Center for Human Development David is responsible for the oversight and support of six human service programs in Hampshire County, serving some of our region's most vulnerable adults, families and children who face a broad array of serious and persistent challenges in their daily lives. Christine Texiera A steering committee member for the Western Mass Arts Alliance, Christine will be able to talk to the needs of regional arts organizations. She is also Technology Systems Manager for the UMass Fine Arts Center.
