 Triangle BPW Volunteer Event

 Contact:  Linda Karolak, Triangle BPW

The Triangle BPW will be volunteering again this year to answer phones in the live TV studio for UNC TV.  We will join the afternoon shift on Saturday, March 6 (2:30pm until 7:00pm).

It is fun, and they feed you, and you don't need to work very hard, and if we have 20 volunteers they will give us two 30-second spots sometime during the broadcast to tell folks who we are and what we do:  good PR for BPW!

If you, your family, and your friends are interested in participating with the Triangle BPW, please contact Linda Karolak.
