Dottie volunteers at the Volunteers of America of Florida office staff in Ybor City.

"I wanted to become involved in the community as a volunteer. In my background I had worked with contracts and grants and am able to work with the grant writing team, filing, copying and web research. I enjoy going in to volunteer. Everybody has been so gracious and makes me feel appreciated. I enjoy volunteering knowing that the agency is doing a lot of good in Tampa and around the state for folks with mental illness, elderly and veterans who have earned and really deserve our attention."

Deanna is improving her life and polishing up on computer skills at the agency's new computer center in Ybor City. When she saw a chance to be a part of the team she jumpd at it. Deanna copies, sorts, files and takes on any task thrown her way, whatever and wherever she can help she does!
