Posted on July 12, 2007 | Leave a comment

Team IMPACT (Individuals Motivated by Progress, Action, Commitment and Time) is a new group that will serve as an extension of the area Easter Seals organization’s board of directors, while focusing on volunteerism. They are seeking young professionals interested in making a difference in the lives of children and adults with disabilities.

This event will be a time to learn more about the group while it is still in its formative stages. Light hors d’oeuvres will be served to those in attendance.

While you don’t have to, they’d prefer it if you’d RSVP for the event (call Paige Jordan at 314.2188).
