Volunteer Extra Efforts

Over the course of the tour, volunteers have made extra efforts to make the exhibit happen. In Oberlin, OH, not only did they feel that it was the best community-building experience that they had had in years, they also wanted to travel to help other towns set up the memorial.

The latest example comes from Ohio as well, where one volunteer with MS told our AFSC staff person that she was exhausted, but felt that she definitely wanted to expend the effort to have Eyes Wide Open come to town. She said that she chose what activities she did very carefully and this was one that she believed in. She is involved in helping shoose the site.
