Dominic Mori was an Intern at the Volunteer Center from 2012-2014 and this is what he has to say about being a FLEX Volunteer Leader, “I was an intern at the Volunteer Center for 2 years from 2012-2014 and became very involved with outreach to partners, environmental projects and the cards projects. Interning at the volunteer center has helped my skills in communication, project management and outreach. As a FLEX leader I gained confidence in my ability to lead individuals and groups through meaningful volunteer projects.”
