Volunteer Center of Lubbock hosting open house to celebrate new location - KCBD
The Volunteer Center of Lubbock is celebrating its 35th anniversary and a new location with an open house and ribbon-cutting on August 27, running from 1 p.m.
The center previously sat near Broadway and Avenue T. Executive Director Emily Smith led the move as part of the anniversary milestone, and the event is open to anyone who wants to stop by, tour the new space, and grab some refreshments.
For people who donate their time to causes across Lubbock, this is the organization that connects them to those opportunities. A new location and new leadership at the same time signals the center is in a period of real change, not just a routine address swap. Whether you've ever signed up to volunteer or just want to see what the center does, the open house is designed to let folks walk in without an invitation.
Thirty-five years is a long run for any nonprofit.
