We would love to have you volunteer at our Future of Opportunities event on SaturdaySeptember 21, 2019 in Mukilteo, WA. This event is our signature fundraising event and we need your help to make it a success! We'll have exciting speakers (including Lt. Governor Cyrus Habib!), a raise the paddle, an auction, and tons of set up and sighted guide opportunities. We absolutely rely on support from superstar volunteers to run our silent auction, photo booth, displays, handing out programs, as well as guiding those who are blind or DeafBlind.
The event is from 6:30-9:00 p.m. in Mukilteo, so we need volunteer support beginning at 5 p.m.

The training event will take place at our Seattle facility:
