Shaele Wood is the director of the Volunteer Center at the United Way, Thomas Jefferson Area. Peppy Linden is one of Charlottesville’s most prolific volunteers. Coy Barefoot invited the pair to be on the October 6 edition of WINA’s Charlottesville–Right Now to discuss the value of volunteerism and its importance for the community. Listen in for important tips on how you can get involved with local organizations. You can also check out what opportunities are out there at this website.

Love the show.
Coy,I do want to say I was a bit surprised by something you said at the beginning of the show – something about how people new to Cville might not be ‘regular church-goers.’
I recently met a person who attends the local Jewish temple, and I know a lot of people who are not religious. Your implication that everyone goes to ‘church’ seemed a bit off, considering the audience. Not that I think you have to be superPC or oversensitive, but your phraseology did SURPRISE me.
Thanks for a great show, though.
