It's National School Volunteer Week, so we would like to highlight Janelle Leiseth and the Moorhead Legacy Education Foundation board. Take a look at what Janelle has to say about her experience volunteering and MLEF! 👇
“My favorite part of volunteering for MAPS is meeting other dedicated parents and guardians who are passionate about service to the community and the schools. I love working with an engaging board of directors at MLEF and learning about each of their personal connections to Moorhead Schools; it has been so uplifting and inspirational. Collectively, they bring a strong desire to help MAPS in transformational ways. The most fulfilling part of volunteering, and especially in working with MLEF, is knowing a difference is being made in the lives of others and seeing that impact.” - Janelle Leiseth, MLEF Chair
Want to get involved? Community members can help MLEF by volunteering on our committee to help plan and execute special events, thank our generous donors and sew/donate masks for the Spuds Care campaign for MAPS. To find out more about MLEF's events and campaigns, visit www.MoorheadLegacy.org.
