Many nonprofits like Maggie's Wigs 4 Kids of Michigan are small but mighty, relying on the talents of volunteers who play an integral role in supporting our missions. Today, we thank Ryan who volunteered for the last month. Utilizing his background in software engineering, he assisted with updating our website. Ryan also supported us with general handyman projects and participated in a community outreach event. During his time with our organization, Ryan brought in hair donations from himself & his sister - this is a great example of the many ways volunteers make a difference!
