According to a report by the Bureau of Labor Statistics in Feb. 2015, about 62.8 million people volunteered through or for an organization at least once between September 2013 and September 2014. NGLA knows that our volunteers have the option to spend their time in a variety of other ways and we sincerely appreciate the time you give to move the mission of our association forward. We could not continue to do the good work we do without your efforts. Some ways to show appreciation to Volunteers during Volunteer Appreciation Month:
- Write thank you notes for great things volunteers do
- Check in with them and see how they are doing in their role
- Highlight their great accomplishments in newsletters and publications
- Give small tokens of your appreciation (i.e. gift cards, mugs, pens etc.)

| The search for volunteers continues. We are still looking to recruit volunteers for many positions to continue the great work of our association. If you are interested in helping out NGLA in any capacity, please complete the Call for Volunteers Form or contact Kevin Pons at kpons@sigmapi.org. There are a variety of workgroups, committees and special projects that could use your help. We look forward to hearing from you soon. |

Participants explore not only what they want to do, but who they want to be. Dynamic, challenging, and exciting, the week is intended to produce a breakthrough in the leadership capacity of participants — benefiting them individually, as well as their respective communities and the organizations they will go on to lead and serve in the future. AFLV sessions of LeaderShape® will bring together fraternity and sorority leaders from across North America to share in this experience, all under the umbrella of shared fraternal values.
Early-bird registration ends on May 1, 2015. Visit http://leadershape.aflv.org for more information on our 3 sessions in Florida, Kansas, and California.
