Greetings Humane Ohio Volunteers!
I would like to introduce myself to everyone - my name is Lisa Hochradel, the new Volunteer Coordinator and Outreach Manager. As many of you know, I was the former Director of Humane Ohio from June 2007 through June 2010 and I have chosen to step into this new position as of July 1, 2010. I am very excited to work with all of you and I look forward to meeting those of you I don't know.
Christina Weyrick-Cooper has transitioned 100% into the Development Manager position. There will be plenty of new opportunities for volunteers to continue to work with her on some exciting new fundraising campaigns in the coming year.
We have many exciting things happening at Humane Ohio, as always, and we need your help. Please read below and email me at volunteer@humaneohio.org if you can help with any of these needs.
Special Skills Needed
Humane Ohio needs someone to shoot and edit a short promotional video for our organization. We expect the project will require a few hours of initial recording and then editing including adding music and text. Do you have these skills? If so, please contact Christina at development@humaneohio.org
Spay Patrol Walk for the 43609 TNR (trap-neuter-return) program
