Membership’s
Volunteer Recognition Committee
Many thanks go to
Aili Pogust, Recognition Committee Chair,
for leading our new approach in volunteerism. She created
a fun exercise for our Holiday Party for us to recognize
the collective contributions of our Volunteer Community
in the development of PACA.

PACA Recognition Committee Chair
Aili introduced the crucial benefit
our organization receives because of the willingness of
all our members to provide skills, time and brain power.
All our Volunteers provide direct results in the continued
success of PACA.
In order for Volunteerism
to be meaningful, it has a two-pronged focus:
1. Concrete results an organization gains.
2. Personal opportunities provided by the volunteer experiences
to expand skill-sets and personal goals.
Aili described how
she stretched her skills in program development through
a consistent recognition program that she developed in
a safe, professional environment. At times, it was a challenge,
yet she strengthened the skill in working on this project
with other coaches with whom it was wonderful to work.

PACA Executive Board

the criteria for this award: an active member in good
