Hello, VMAWM Members!

We know we haven’t been as visible in the community as years past. This is due, in part, to COVID-19. As volunteer managers, we all know that COVID-19 has forever changed the ways in which our programs operate. Being a completely volunteer driven board ourselves, it can be difficult to juggle the ever-changing safety updates, commitments, and responsibilities within our personal careers in addition to the responsibilities of VMAWM.

That said, we are here and we are not going anywhere. Despite the challenges that COVID-19 has brought us, our team is committed to the volunteer community in West Michigan.

Stay up to date on upcoming events by joining our mailing list. Additionally, contact us directly by clicking here.

We wouldn’t be VMAWM without our members, volunteers, community, and our board. We appreciate your contributions, discussions, ideas, and continued support. We hope to see you virtually at our February Event!

Thank you!

Kortney Hapner | VMAWM President 2021-2022

That’s a wrap!
