Honoring the Heart of Our Work: A Night of Volunteer Appreciation
Connor’s Heroes hosted a Volunteer Appreciation Party at Cabo Taco. We treated volunteers to delicious tacos, surprised them with raffle prizes, and well-deserved awards.
Congratulations to this year’s honorees of our first-ever volunteer awards:
Rising Hero of the Year- Kristie F. and Volunteer of the Year – Cynthia W.
Dayna, our Community Engagement Manager, shared a glimpse at the impact our volunteers have made:
1,719 hours in volunteer hours from January 2024 – June 2025
In 2024, volunteers donated 836 hours valued at $29,260
*The average hourly rate of a volunteer in Virginia is $35/hour.
Each number tells a story, but more than the awards, more than the stats, this night honored every single volunteer. Whether you volunteered at an event or behind the scenes, thank you for giving your time, your heart, and your hands. To us, you are all heroes.
As a Connor’s Heroes volunteer, you can help behind the scenes or at events. We have quick projects or days of community service for individuals, families, or corporate partners.
