More work you say??

Gary emailed me today and asked if I would come in and speak with him about some more potential volunteer work. I was hesitant to email him aback and tell him I'd be glad to take on more work in fear of becoming overwhelmed or taking on too much for the scope of this project. I ended up emailing him back at the end of the day and set up a meeting with him later int he week. When we did meet, I left on my lunch break and had about 30 minutes to discuss this upcoming volunteer work with him. I walked in and caught Gary on a phone call (as usual), he motioned for me to sit and I waited for a good 10 minutes before he hung up and was ready to talk. He started to tell me about the organization called the Valley Aids Network. The VAN was set up based off a grant from the Ryan White Foundation back in 1989 and allows for "greater access and collaboration opportunities to a wealth of community health, human services, education and other agencies and organizations in the area. This increased visibility and recognition in the community enables VAN to enlist additional services and assistance for our clients". The Van does this by setting up different services and events meant to screen and educate people for HIV/AIDS.

Gary then went on o mention that they would like some help redesigning their website. He asked if I had the background knowledge to help, where I agreed saying I did in fact have the background and I'd love to help. He then went on to ask if I could do it over the summer, since that is when they would have the greatest need for volunteers and that is around the time they wanted to change up their website. Unfortunately, I told him I wont be around during the summer but Id be glad to email them and ask if I could help remotely or simply just give them some ideas over email. He said that would be great and gave me a contact person. We'll see if I end up working for two organizations at once, hope I didn't get myself into too much work..
