Central Mississippi Hub
Central MS
Volunteer Hub Director
Hello Alliance Family!
I am Jamie Beatty, the new Central Mississippi Hub Director. It is such a joy to work with you, and I am looking forward to strengthening our connection through my new position.
I started working with the Alliance in September and immediately began contacting nonprofits and volunteers to spread the word about all that the Central MS Hub offers. Through our website (centralmshub.com), we regularly post volunteer opportunities to assist nonprofit organizations with recruiting and securing volunteers. The website is a tool for both nonprofit organizations and for individuals seeking to volunteer across Central Mississippi.
If your organization has volunteer opportunities available, please email me (Jamie.beatty@alliancems.org ) for information on how to utilize the Volunteer Hub. I am looking forward to connecting with you soon!
