One organization manages 750 volunteers By  JOHN  FLOWERS MIDDLEBURY  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  It  was  in  2005  that  a  handful  of  volunteers,  largely  from  Middleburyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  religious  commu- nity,  formed  the  Charter  House  Coalition  to  tend  to  the  needs  of  the  areaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  hungry  and  homeless. Nine  years  later,  the  coalitionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  volunteer  ranks  have  swelled  to  750  â&#x20AC;&#x201D;  a  larger  population  than  exists  in  D KDOI GR]HQ $GGLVRQ &RXQW\ WRZQV That  army  of  helpers,  hailing  from  all  corners  of  the  county,  now  provides  a  combined  total  of  2,300  hours  of  service  annually  to  manage  a  home- less  shelter,  provide  transitional  housing  and  serve  up  more  than  21,000  meals  each  year  to  people  in  need  of  sustenance.

all  you  can  say.  â&#x20AC;&#x153;Thereâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  just  a  spirit  of  wanting  to  be  part  of  a  community  and  to  support  your  neighbors  that  exists  in  Vermont,  but  especially  here.  We  are  just  the  avenue  by  which  people  have  been  able  to  do  what  they  want  WR GR ´ The  coalitionâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  home  base  is,  appropriately  enough,  the  Charter  House,  an  18th-Âcentury  white  house  across  Pleasant  Street  from  the  Congregational  Church  of  Middlebury,  which  owns  the  build- ing.  Once  the  headquarters  of  Elderly  Services  Inc.,  the  Charter  House  now  provides  winter  housing  to  up  WR ÂżYH KRPHOHVV IDPLOLHV IURP 1RY 1  through  April.  It  is  staffed  around  the  clock  by  trained  volunteers  who  make  sure  the  resident  families  enjoy  a  secure,  healthy  and  enriching  stay.  The  Coalition  also  works  closely  with  Helping  Overcome  Povertyâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  Effects,  the  Parent-ÂChild  Center  of  Addison  County,  Mary  Johnson Â

What  causes  am  I  passionate  about? A  cause  you  are  passionate  about  is  often  a  great  place  to  start  when  you  search  for  a  volunteering  opportunity.  For  example,  people  who  love  animals  PD\ ÂżQG WKDW ZRUNLQJ ZLWK DQ DQLPDO shelter,  whether  itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s  working  at  the  shelter  or  fostering  animals  in  need  of  temporary  homes,  is  a  great  way  to  give  back.  Sports  fans  and  athletes  whose  playing  days  are  largely  behind  them  may  want  to  volunteer  with Â
their  local  youth  leagues  or  coach  at  a  school.  When  you  are  passionate  about  a  cause,  you  will  likely  be  passionate  about  volunteering  to  advance  that  cause.

service learning programs with the intent to, in their words, â&#x20AC;&#x153;break the cycle of poverty, illiteracy and low expectations,â&#x20AC;? Debanjan came well prepared to mentor teenagers. He explains that his goal at ACT is to â&#x20AC;&#x153;facilitate genuine and open dialogue through the spoken word/ Hip Hop workshops that I teach. I truly enjoy the people that I meet and being involved in a larger community of folks from whom I learn. Volunteering at the Teen Center is so important to me because of the mentorship that others provided me when I was younger. It helped me grow and develop and feel at home in alienating spaces. Iâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;m glad to be able to provide that opportunity and mentorship for others and hope to do so for the rest of my life.â&#x20AC;? ACT staff describes Debanjan as â&#x20AC;&#x153;a very caring young man who encourages teens to open up and use their voices to express what and how they feel.

Library administrators describe Earlene as â&#x20AC;&#x153;an invaluable ambassador! Between her cataloging duties and making special book deliveries to her neighbors, she brings joy and dedication to each task. Although she prefers to work behind the scenes, her years of dedication to the library are appreciated by each individual who benefits from her commitment. She is happy to donate hours of her time to the library, working from home, performing outreach to her neighbors, and even while she is on vacation in Colorado.â&#x20AC;? Thank you, Earlene!

Maddie explains why she enjoys her work: â&#x20AC;&#x153;Volunteering with elementary schoolers is such a blast! They have a natural curiosity that constantly challenges me to become personally invested in my academic learning. In addition, Wyoming is currently exploring whether or not to pursue refugee resettlement, and my experiences volunteering with immigrant and refugee populations in Vermont has greatly informed my perspectives on resettlement occurring in my home state. I canâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;t wait to keep on learning from this community!â&#x20AC;? Thank you for volunteering, Maddie!

When asked what he enjoys most about helping out, Firas replied: â&#x20AC;&#x153;I love the process of selfgrowth that comes out of volunteering.

Ian Hart Ian Hart, of Middlebury, has been a Guardian Ad Litem for the Addison Family Division of the Court for the past two years. Ian, who also serves as an Emeritus Professor for the University of Connecticut, explains: â&#x20AC;&#x153;This is not a job for everyone, however I have been very grateful for all of the help and guidance that I have received as I settled in. I get an enormous feeling of satisfaction from those occasions when I am able to help a child sort out a serious problem.â&#x20AC;? Thank you for serving as a childâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s advocate, Ian.
Jaclynne Wootten Jaclynne Wootten, of Brandon, volunteers at Homeward Bound by easing the animalsâ&#x20AC;&#x2122; transitions into a new environment and by helping run a dog training program. â&#x20AC;&#x153;As a massage therapist, I understand the healing benefits of touch,â&#x20AC;? she explained. â&#x20AC;&#x153;Animals that are in transition are frightened and the simple act of holding, stroking, and speaking with gentle encouragement can help soothe them. It fills my heart with joy as I witness dogs, some who start out severely traumatized and frightened, learn to trust again and go on to learn social behaviors that make them more adoptable. In short, I volunteer to play a role in the healing and transformation of animals in transition, because it continues to play a role in my own healing and transformation.â&#x20AC;? Thank you for your service, Jaclynne!

on Addison County Jennifer and Clare Molineaux Jennifer and Clare Molineaux, of Middlebury, have been volunteering for Addison Central Teens (ACT) for the past two years. The dynamic duo brings a unique energy to the teen clothing Swap and Shop event that ACT hosts twice a year at MUHS. They clearly have a passion for recycling and second hand clothing, always contributing their cheerful smiles and a great sense of humor to the event. Jennifer explains their commitment to volunteering at ACT: â&#x20AC;&#x153;We love that we can help at the clothing swap as a mother/daughter team. Clare is very aware of the way human consumerism takes wild space from animals, and helping make it easy for humans to re-use clothing is our way of preserving that wild space. Also, we enjoy having the opportunity to sometimes swap clothes for ourselves!â&#x20AC;? Thank you so much for your wonderful energy and support for this event, Jennifer and Clare!

I most enjoy the intangible and powerful feeling that I am using my time and God-given resources to help other people in ways unique to my blessings.” Thank you for caring, Zach.

Rachel Kim Rachel Kim, a Middlebury College student from Bronxville, NY, has been a volunteer at the John Graham Shelter for the past three years. Every week, she and her fellow student volunteers take a trip to Vergennes to cook dinner for the residents who live at the shelter. Rachel, who also organizes several college-wide brunches, as well as a Thanksgiving feast and an Easter meal, explains: “We try to prepare delicious and healthy meals for everyone and [I like the fact that] these dinners have enabled us to establish really great relationships with the residents who live there. What I love most about volunteering, however, is getting off Middlebury’s campus and spending time with people who have different interests and backgrounds. I enjoy meeting new people and I would not be able to do this if I did not volunteer at John Graham. I also love this organization because I LOVE cooking. I can do something that I enjoy while also filling up everyone’s stomachs with great food!” Rachel adds that the other members of the Friends of John Graham make her responsibilities as a leader incredibly easy: “Everybody puts in 110% and the success of the organization is based on the great volunteers who participate. They all have immense passion for the Shelter and for the amazing people at John Graham!” Thank you for volunteering, Rachel.

Rachel Woods
TAM VOLUNTEERS MAKE IT HAPPEN!
Rachel Woods, a Middlebury College student from Hanover, NH, has volunteered for the past four years with the Sister-to-Sister (STS) initiative, which organizes events that bring together college and middle-school girls. She explains: “STS works very hard to make sure our events will be interesting and fun for our middle-school sisters and we’re always conscious of our influence as potential role models, but it also works the other way around! We get just as excited about our events as the girls do, and they are also role models for us on how to be more kind, passionate, and inclusive [community members].” Rachel shared that she grew up as a “townie” living in the shadow of Dartmouth, and so common complaints about students, such as not looking before crossing the street (as well as other less harmless ones) are very familiar to her: “For me, volunteering helps me show my gratitude to the surrounding community for all they do for us, and also makes me feel more like Middlebury is not just a stopover, but home.” Thank you, Rachel.
