Are you engaged in your community? 🤔 In 2023, Serve Virginia and the Virginia Service Foundation introduced the Virginia Community Engagement Index (VCEI).

Take a look at some of the interesting highlights such as, "Why we serve," "Where we serve," "how we serve," and more! https://lnkd.in/eQszbxnE

Why is it so hard to get people to volunteer at church? Many churches struggle with volunteer recruitment because they don’t make the first step easy enough, or they fail to connect volunteer roles to the larger mission. But it doesn’t have to be this way! In my latest blog post, I summarize the biggest barriers to recruiting volunteers and offer actionable tips to improve your efforts. Here's a sneak peek: 1. Create one-time, low-risk opportunities. 2. Align volunteer roles with your church's mission. 3. Celebrate volunteers publicly to inspire others.

🌟 Celebrating National Day of Service 🌟 #NationalDayOfService #NobleProgGivesBack Today, on January 16th, we at NobleProg join the nation in observing the National Day of Service. This day is not just a day off but a day "on" - a day dedicated to giving back, serving our communities, and making a positive impact in the lives of others. As a part of our commitment to community service and social responsibility, we're taking this opportunity to engage in various service projects across our locations. Our teams are excited to participate in local initiatives ranging from environmental clean-ups to volunteering at food banks and supporting educational programs for underprivileged children. 🤝 We believe that service to others is not just a duty but a privilege. It's an embodiment of our core values and a reflection of our commitment to making a meaningful difference in the world. We encourage everyone in our network – employees, clients, partners, and followers – to join us in this endeavor. Whether it’s through a small act of kindness in your neighborhood or by participating in organized community service activities, every effort counts! Let's use this day to spread positivity, foster community spirit, and contribute to the greater good. Share your experiences and stories of service using the hashtags #NationalDayOfService and #NobleProgGivesBack. Let’s inspire each other with acts of generosity and kindness! Together, we can make a world of difference! 💪 #CommunityService #MakingADifference #SocialResponsibility #NobleProgFamily

3rd attempt to post. Though at DEA they are not so proud to highlight their shortcomings that they have no issue hiding from taxpayers. They removed my previous posts which simply expresses DEA's willingness to hide their incompetence and disabled comments on the appropriate post. If this firm put out the truth and numbers of how many things they had to redo on this Highway 20 Safety Upgrade between Corvallis and Albany OR taxpayers would have something to say about this firm’s laughable ranking. How about it DEA, put out an itemized list of everything that had to be done two or three times because it wasn’t done right in the first place and how much taxpayers money was wasted in the process. In my driveway alone they had to do multiple things more than once. No wonder ODOT never comes in on budget with incompetence like this! Taxpayers should not have to foot the bill for this! DEA was contracted for at least the Newberg-Dundee Bypass, the worst one, up 239% from original estimate. https://lnkd.in/epv6uESx
