Spread out over a number of days, I phone banked for the YMI to raise money for their GoFundMe. This fundraiser was created to put funds towards preserving their historic building/community space, to financially support the work the staff and volunteers are/were doing, and further funding for educational programs and community initiatives. Due Covid-19 and being off-campus (and located in Triangle area) this semester, I have felt disconnected from the AVL area and limited in traditional ways to engage with community. I was excited that I could work with the YMI in this capacity while working on reaching their fundraising goals.
I learned a lot about place and privilege, especially from my fellow Bonner interns!
Habitat site leaders at Shiloh location were really great with the volunteers!
