The volunteer opportunity is someting enormous numbers of students are utilizing to build up their resumes for paying jobs.... Whattya think?

I know my daughter, who returns from India next month, would defintelly benefit from being able to put this on her resume ... and if we put it in JOBS we most assuredly will attract volunteers from countries we want to reach....

Two excellent ideas. The volunteers project should be our third priority after 1) keeping the GA Dialog going and 2) organizing our presentation. What do we need to do for our volunteers? For instance, do we need to keep their hours?
