Opportunity to Volunteer!


Dear Friends of REAL! 

We invite you to volunteer with REAL on July 6 & 7 at Our Redeemer Oromo Evangelical Church  located at 4000 28th Ave South Minneapolis, MN 55406 (http://oromochurchmn.org) 17th Annual conference. REAL will have information a booth at the conference and in need of volunteers . We have heard that a few hundred people from the Oromo community are expected at this event, and we are planning some kids activities, so we are in need of volunteers to work a shift of a few hours on either or both of those days.  There are several ways to be involved, including running a little carnival game, face painting, volunteering in a book corner (if we can get some books), or staffing the REAL table.  

Please let our intern Alicia Robey know if you and/or anyone you know (e.g. teenagers looking for volunteer opportunities, REAL sponsors, etc) are willing to take one or more of the shifts below and/or if you have access to any of the following items:
