ICO: REI Gift-Wrap Fundraiser 2011

Greetings, volunteers and supporters:
 
It is REI gift-wrapping time again for Inner City Outings (ICO), the Sierra Club"s outreach program to introduce kids to hiking, camping, and the great outdoors! Atlanta ICO is in need of volunteers for its winter fundraiser on December 16-24, 2011.

We had a wonderful fundraiser at REI last year"wrapped a lot of gifts, raised a lot of money, provided a service to busy shoppers, and spread the word about what we do. You can"t get more win-win than that. We hope you"ll join us this year.

We have added more shifts this year to accommodate shoppers. The list of dates and shift times is below. Please contact us if you can volunteer, where you would like to volunteer (Atlanta or Perimeter) which shift(s) you would like, and how many of you there will be.

If you can"t volunteer, but would like to bake cookies for the volunteers (MUCH appreciated!), contact us about that, too.

If you are interested in helping ICO with this year's funding, getting these kids outdoors and getting into the holiday spirit, please join us. Looking forward to greeting you at the gift-wrapping table!

The Atlanta Inner City Outings program is a community outreach program that provides low-income, inner city youth with trips into the wilderness. Atlanta ICO volunteers take children from area Schools on outdoor adventures to learn about nature and to increase their environmental awareness, interpersonal skills and self-esteem.

At REI, "We inspire, educate and outfit for a lifetime of outdoor adventure and stewardship". Each year, REI donates millions of dollars to support conservation efforts nationwide, and sends scores of volunteers to build trails, clean up beaches, and teach outdoor ethics to kids. Through responsible business practices, we strive to reduce our environmental footprint. (visit our website)
