Volunteer Options for Thanksgiving

As Thanksgiving comes up we all think of things we are thankful for.  One of the things RPCVs are thankful for is the fact that we get to have the Thanksgiving that we missed out on while serving.  The turkey, the stuffing, and all the goodies that are often associated with this holiday.  However there are a lot of people out there (including some RPCVs) who do not get to enjoy this holiday.  This post includes some of the volunteer options in Fairbanks for Thanksgiving.   Its always important to give back to the community and we as RPCVs never really lose the urge to volunteer.

We hope that everyone takes a moment to think of all the things they are thankful for, the big and the small.  Happy Thanksgiving.
