OHSU ThinkFirst Oregon: Help Educate and Inform People on Brain and Spinal Cord Injury Prevention (Saturday, May 5th)
Posted by hannah.cherry
Help OHSU ThinkFirst Oregon Educate and Inform the community during the annual Safe Kids Day at the Zoo event.
Help us by volunteering your time and teach people about anatomy and function of the brain using brain models we have on hand. Teach kids/adults about the impact of brain injury by helping us run activities during the event. Training will be provided before your chosen shift.
The event will be taking place on Saturday, May 5th, 2018 from 9AM to 2 PM at the Oregon Zoo (Address: 4001 Southwest Canyon Road, Portland, OR 97221).
Please visit our website link to sign up for a volunteer shift. More details will be shared as we get closer to event date and once you have signed up for a shift. Any questions can be directed to thinkfirst@ohsu.edu.

About the Volunteer Opportunities Newsletter
The Volunteer Opportunities Newsletter allows students, faculty, and staff at PCC a more comprehensive look at volunteer needs and opportunities from our community partners. Our hope is that the newsletter will allow subscribers to stay better informed about community service opportunities in the tri-county areas of Portland, Oregon, as well as non-profit internships and scholarships available locally and nationally.
