International Volunteer Club Leaders


Back in January '07, our first team of volunteers were elected at the 1st Int'l Convention of FC

volunteers. Now, after an incredible 4th Convention, we are pleased to introduce our newest

Team who is here to build on the successes of our previous leaders as they share ideas, and

unite all the amazing teens volunteering their time to Make The World a "FRIENDlier" Place!

School: S.A.R. High School

Grade: 10th

My Goals as President: To connect more FC volunteers by creating

"Inter-State" days, to gather volunteers for a day of fun, sharing and learning from eachother's

FC experiences. I'm also eager to launch the "Traveling Buddies" campaign, a special pen-pal

type project, which will connect special friends & volunteers with those from other branches.
