  • Hi! I served in Washington, DC with City Year for 2 years but I now live in Buffalo. I was wondering how I can get involved for this cool event? Thanks for your help!

  • Hey Danielle – you must be the dedicated soul who ran over to say hi during the meeting last night. I was at that meeting and served with VISTA from ‘06-’08. I’d love to meet with you to let you know what you missed. Email me – casey.kristin@gmail.com. Hope your presentation went well!
