stand-by volunteers and Board of Directors of Volunteer Prince William.

caring for household pets and shoveling snow. The volunteers are at the 
ready and Volunteer Prince William could not function without them. 
They give selflessly of their time and energy whenever they are called. 
The volunteers are the unsung heroes, quietly working behind the 
scenes. Their contributions to the community and to our organization 
make all of us safer, stronger and more resilient.
