A Letter from Sherry Thompson re: Women's Resource Fair
My name is Sherry Thompson. I am a co-chair of the childcare subcommittee for the Women's Resource Fair which is sponsored in part by Lawyer's Club of San Diego. I have the honor of sharing the position of co-chair with the Honorable Cynthia Bashant. The Women's Resource Fair is an annual event that is sponsored and supported by a number of individuals and local organizations in San Diego. The purpose of this one-day fair is to assist San Diego's women in need, including homeless and battered women and their children, by addressing their need for many basic services, which include medical assistance, services for their children, legal services, information regarding employment opportunities, and vocational rehabilitation, along with counseling for battered women and assistance with public benefits. This year, the Fair will be held at the San Diego Community Concourse on Saturday, March 1, 2008
In the past, you or your organization may have volunteered to work at the fair. As a co-chair of the childcare subcommittee, we are asking for your support again this year. Last year we provided childcare for over 150 children. We need individuals to work at the fair as runners, registrars and sitters. As a volunteer, you will help provide care for children ranging from one to twelve years of age. There are full day and half day shifts available from 8:00 - 4:00 p.m., 8:00-12:00 p.m., 10:00
- 2:00 p.m. and 12:00 - 4:00 p.m. We provide a community service certificate for students as well as lunch and parking for all our volunteers. The age limit to volunteer is 14 years old, but we do make exceptions if an adult can accompany the volunteer. This fair is an amazing opportunity for the women who participate and the volunteers who make it happen. We hope that you will consider joining us. Please feel free to contact me if you have any additional questions. Thank you for your consideration
Also, if you are interested in serving as a room monitor please let me know. A room monitor works with a partner to make sure all the kids are safe and the volunteers are interacting well and having fun. I'm still looking for three more room monitors. The commitment is from 7:30 - 4:30.
Kindest regards,
Sherry M. Thompson
