<description><![CDATA[It's kitten season, and the kittens are everywhere. So many sad stories. Today a young girl came to us and told us her mom had died, leaving her 3 cats that now have had kittens. We need people who will foster these kittens - one? two? - and make it their project to see them get adopted.  
<br>

<br>
We may not be able to change the world, But YOU can change the world for one kitten.  What do you say?]]></description>

•	Wish them a happy birthday (it feels good when someone remembers)<br>
•	Offer support and resources available to them through Cambrian and other community programs.<br>
<br>
Activities Volunteer: <br>
If you prefer to act versus chat on the phone, our Activities position is a good option that allows you to interact with our clients and provide one-on-one or group support.  In this role you can: <br>
•	Assist with our monthly Bingo gatherings – be a caller, assist with preparation, decoration or just be a resource during the event.<br>
•	Work with our seniors in our Adult Day Care Center (coming soon) – Coordinate an activity, prepare food, or just socialize with the participants.<br>
<br>
Office Support Volunteer: <br>
Perhaps you want to help, but aren’t sure about interacting with clients…we still have things you can do to help!  <br>
•	Prepare compliment cards and mail them to our caregivers so we can acknowledge their job well done!<br>
•	Send condolence cards to family members who have experienced a loss. <br>
•	Gather and display testimonials regarding Cambrian services.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Cambrian Cuisine Volunteer:<br>
Do you enjoy cooking? Want to do it for those who can’t do it for themselves?  <br>
There is nothing like a home cooked meal and some of our clients don’t have family to prepare it for them or the resources to buy a well balanced meal – you can help! <br>
•	Use our on-site kitchen to prepare healthy meals and deliver them to clients who are unable to get out on their own.  <br>
•	Prepare snacks for our Adult Day Care Center participants.<br>
<br>
Hit the road…<br>
•	Deliver meals<br>
•	Take flowers to our clients who make the century mark<br>
<br>
<br>
Whatever you decide to do Cambrian appreciates your interest in volunteering and we know our client’s will benefit from what you have to offer.  Give us a call – we can design a volunteer opportunity that is a match for your time and interest while benefiting our very deserving client population.<br>

<description><![CDATA[My name is Marc Barton and I am a Sergeant in the U.S. Army. I have not <br>
filed for bankruptcy yet and hopefully with your help I can avoid that. <br>
I have also contacted the credit counseling services, I will continue to <br>
try but I am getting the same response from all of them. I can't even <br>
afford their monthly payments to pay it off, and I have been told that I <br>
can't even afford to declare bankruptcy. If you look at my monthly <br>
expenses, I barely scrape by month to month and some months are a little <br>
harder. It seems that whenever I get an extra dollar, something comes <br>
up. <br>
I guess I should start at the beginning. I found out in August of 1997 <br>
that my son was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis. I wanted the best for <br>
him and found out that enlisting in the Army would provide him with full <br>
medical coverage. Within a week I was off to boot camp at Fort Knox, KY. <br>
<br>
Currently I am assigned to the 3RD Brigade, 2ND Infantry Division at <br>
Fort Lewis, Washington. My wife, Sarah, and I have 2 sons and a daughter <br>
on the way in June. <br>
I have been deployed to Iraq twice in support of Operation Iraqi <br>
Freedom. During my first deployment, I came home on leave and found a <br>
beautiful house for my family. I purchased the house and even though it <br>
needed many repairs and updates, I was determined to turn it into our <br>
dream home. Shortly after signing all the paperwork, I returned to Iraq <br>
to complete my tour of duty. <br>
Everything was going fine until my last deployment that ended in <br>
September of 2007. I found out that my mortgage was part of the <br>
sub-prime crisis that has hit the market. My intent was to redeploy in <br>
July, refinance my house for a fixed interest rate, and move on. However <br>
my tour was extended 3 months and I couldn't make it back in time before <br>
the ARM adjusted. <br>
Up to July of 2007, I had kept all my credit card payments current and <br>
was on my way to having a good credit score to refinance with. <br>
In July my APR was 6.5% and in August it was 9.5% and now it has reached <br>
10.85%. My payments went from $850.00 a month to $1390.00 a month. On <br>
top of that I have a second mortgage that I took out to purchase <br>
building materials and other items to bring the house together. I <br>
believe I have done a great job on it. I purchased it at $152,000 and it <br>
now appraises at $300,000. <br>
When my mortgage payments started rising, I couldn't keep up with my <br>
other debt such as credit cards, utilities and so forth. I had to fall <br>
back on my credit cards to keep up with some of the necessities and then <br>
I put all other debts to the side and focused on my mortgage payments <br>
because I didn't want to lose my house. I am now facing losing it though <br>
because I cannot get a lender to even look at me for a refinance. <br>
Because of my delinquency on my credit card debt, my credit score has <br>
plummeted and I can't get it back up to a point where a lender will <br>
assist me. <br>
If I could pay off my credit card debt, and continue with my current <br>
payments on my house for 5-6 months, my broker assures me that my credit <br>
score will go up and I will qualify for a lower interest rate. Or if I <br>
could eliminate my second mortgage, it would free that money up to send <br>
to the creditors. I am willing to seek any avenue it takes. Every month I am barely scraping by and can't <br>
save up any money to make payments on my own. <br>
I have tried for the past 8 months to fix this and I have had a few <br>
organizations donate to me so that I can keep my utilities on, but it's <br>
too little, too late. I don't know what else to do. My wife and kids love <br>
our house and after all the sweat equity I have put into it, I would <br>
hate to have it foreclosed. I just remodeled the upstairs so that my <br>
toddler can move up to his own room and his nursery could be used for <br>
the daughter that is due in 2 months. <br>
If there is anything you can do, can you please help me insure that my <br>
family can stay in our dream home? <br>

<description><![CDATA[The Children's Clinic, a non-profit community clinic, is actively recruiting volunteers to participate in the Reach Out and Read program. It is a national program promoting early literacy among children from low-income, at-risk families in the greater Long Beach area. Volunteers share and read books aloud to patients and their families in the clinic lobby, then help patients choose a book to take home.
<br>
<br>
Come help us promote early reading and create a positive reading environment for our patients! We need volunteers weekdays from 9AM-5PM, with a commitment of at least 2 hours a week. 
<br>

<description><![CDATA[We are a community working towards sustainable living in the mountains of Costa Rica.  We have a couple of children living here at any given time of the year and would like to find a few teachers to rotate in.  Spanish would be a plus but if you have none this would be a good chance for you to learn.  We are looking for someone who would like to come stay at our farm and work with the kids a few hours a day.  Many people come to help build the infrastructure at the farm already, but we need someone to focus on education.  We will be building a schoolhouse this dry season!<br>
<br>
Our farm is a great way to experience Costa Rica.  The village we live in has no tourism.  Our water comes from a spring in the jungle.  Our air is clean and clear.  Most of all, we are having a great time building our community we look forward to some new energy!<br>
<br>
We are looking for some one that fits in to our community minded living as well.  <br>

<description><![CDATA[An Anonymous Way of Healing After Sexual Abuse.<br>
<br>
I am an artist survivor of sexual abuse creating a sound piece that requires other’s participation!<br>
<br>
<br>
I am compiling people’s stories through an anonymous voice mail system!  You can say whatever you feel is relevant: the whole story, one encounter, what you experienced through your senses, how it’s impacted your life now, describe your abuser, you can even address your abuser (i.e. tell him/her how you’re life’s changed, how you feel about them, etc), etc, etc.<br>
<br>
<br>
My hope is that participating will be cathartic to those who’ve been abused and therapeutic for listeners who are survivors too!<br>
<br>
<br>
Please call<br>
(641) 715 – 3900 extension 1193567#<br>

Thank You!<br>
