Eagle County Volunteer Center can now offer service to volunteers of all ages. Success will be measured by the addition and placement of 34 new volunteers. Volunteers are currently serving agencies who are addressing issues such as; aid to the needy, emergency or disaster relief, animal and wildlife care, nursing home visitation, community improvement, arts and culture, the environment, literacy, mentoring, assisting elderly and disabled populations, food banks, hospice care, literacy, libraries, senior programs and critical transportation. Significant documentation is required by Eagle County Government and is available to the public, in the form of bi- annual and annual reports.
