Sue Mears Is Urbandale Volunteer for November

PRESS RELEASE:

UCAN announces November Spotlight Volunteer

Urbandale, IA -  The Urbandale Community Action Network's Spotlight Volunteer Award goes to Sue Mears!   Sue was nominated by Communications Chair Kris Winter. 

Sue has been involved with UCAN for over one year. She started by participating in the Community Conversations. She then joined the Communications Committee as soon as it was formed. Sue is a regular committee attendee. "Sue is one of those volunteers who doesn't wait to be asked to help. She sees a need, proposes solutions and then works on implementing the solution." said Kris Winter.

Sue was instrumental in developing the Communications Template the Committee now uses to promote all UCAN activities and events. Sue has also handled the communications for a number of UCAN activities, including the recent Fall Fun Frenzy and assisting with the Human Services Day. She is now helping with a Communications Assistance Request form to improve efforts between all UCAN committees seeking marketing help from the Communications Committee.

Sue is a great example of how a few hours of volunteering each month can make a significant impact on our community.

Thank you Sue!
