ASA Thanks Its Volunteers—Happy National Volunteer Week

This week is National Volunteer Week, first established by presidential proclamation in 1974 to honor the nation’s volunteers and to encourage volunteerism. ASA succeeds because of its volunteers, and this is an ideal time for the association to thank the many volunteers who contribute their time and share their expertise with the association throughout the year.

Are you looking to learn more about volunteer opportunities and find new ways to contribute to your association? Visit ASA Central, the association’s online community, to apply for a volunteer opportunity.
