Cypress Assistance Ministries<br />

Volunteers Needed<br />

When you volunteer you are giving to your community, but did you<br />

realize volunteering also benefits you as an individual? CAM volunteers<br />

often let us know the fun they are having, the friends they have made and<br />

the fulfillment they receive from helping others.<br />

Cypress Assistance Ministries is a local non-profit organization serving<br />

the Cy-Fair area for over 25 years. CAM offers assistance to those in<br />

need by providing financial assistance, food, clothing, employment<br />

assistance as well as GED & ESL classes. A huge part of this organization<br />

is its volunteers. Currently we are in need of volunteers in many different<br />

areas of the ministry. If you would like more information on how to<br />

become involved, please contact Tara Rauch at 281-955-7684 or tarar@<br />

cypressassistance.org. We look forward to hearing from you!<br />
