The generosity of donors and volunteers can transform lives by creating opportunities and providing access. Every donation, big or small, goes a long way in providing essential support, resources and opportunities. Volunteers are a cornerstone of their work, including their “Key Companions” program for high school teens in need of community service hours; and their “Parents & Adults” volunteers who help with time and talent in recurring events and arts & crafts activations throughout the year; ITAVKB.org.
