The Alabama News Center — Fort Novosel volunteers support soldiers and Alabama’s Wiregrass

By: John Hamilton / Fort Novosel Public Affairs

More than 250 volunteers from Fort Novosel are out getting things done both on post and in surrounding communities, helping to maintain good relations and support the installation needs for its mission.

Keeping a community running – like the ones found on and around Fort Novosel – requires a lot of work, not just from paid employees but from people willing to donate their time, energy and skills. To make this happen, Fort Novosel has a very active volunteer program that links up people with volunteer opportunities in the region. From turning wrenches at the museum and mentoring youths on post, to providing animal care at the humane society in town, Fort Novosel connects volunteers with positions.

“The program is so extensive and means so many things to so many people,” said Volunteer Coordinator Rachel Cespedes.
