CHEERS TO OUR VOLUNTEERS!

On Tuesday, June 19, 2007, The Maurer Foundation acknowledged and expressed its appreciation to its talented and dedicated volunteers by hosting a celebratory party.  In attendance were Board Member, Dr. Kathy Weiss, and the Maurer Foundation staff. Each spoke about their profound gratitude to these remarkable individuals. The Maurer Foundation's volunteers donate their time and skills to every aspect of the Foundation's work. Without our volunteers, The Maurer Foundation would not be able to achieve its goals and accomplish its mission.  These are the women and men who make The Maurer Foundation successful, and we are proud to call them our friends.   To all of our volunteers, we send a heartfelt thank you.
