Volunteering
Definition
Merriam-Webster’s definition to volunteer, is to give of yourself in service to a cause. It is about freely giving your time to help an organization, your community, or an individual. Dedicating your time as a volunteer helps you make new friends, expand your network, and boost your social skills.
New Frontiers is a volunteer lifelong learning organization founded in 1995, and sponsored by Mesa Community College, one of the Maricopa Community Colleges. Members source and facilitate classes both online and in person, provide support for the operations of New Frontiers, and volunteer for MCC activities.
Please contact Mary Adamick about requests for MCC event volunteers and information.

Reporting Volunteer Hours
Volunteering is the gift that keeps on giving and New Frontiers members are generous givers.
Please report your volunteer hours as soon as possible after the event. It could not be any easier than answering a few questions on the Volunteer Hour Report Form.
Reporting volunteer hours is an essential and very important part of volunteering. New Frontiers uses this information when talking with MCC leadership and outside organizations to show how we are involved in NFLL and the community.
