Drivers
for Hope Mobile wanted
The Healthy Communities Partnership is looking for
volunteers, with a Class "C" driver's license, to help drive the
HOPE Mobile several times a month. The destination is in Lincoln and
only requires a few minutes of your time. Dental services are
provided to the community on the days a driver is needed. This is a
very important service provided by the HOPE Mobile, and without
drivers to get the vehicle to its destination the service cannot be
provided. To volunteer or for more information please contact myself
or Kristen Lessen, 217/732-5066 or
lessen.kristin@mhsil.com.
 Get
