Cabrini Conenctions Recognizes Mike Kolberg

“The theme for National Volunteer Week, commemorated April 19-25, is "Celebrating People in Action." The theme captures the meaning behind this signature week – honoring the individuals who dedicate themselves to taking action and solving problems in their communities.”


Continuing with "Celebrating People in Action" at Cabrini Connections this week, I would like to recognize 2nd year volunteer Mike Kolberg. Mike Kolberg started here at Cabrini Connections on Arpril 3, 2008 and has been making his mark on the program every since. Mike is currently matched up with Cabrini Connections' student standout, Savon Clark, and they have truly been a perfect pair from the start.

During the summer at Cabrini Connections, students and volunteers have the opportunity to utilize the program space and all program resources to continue on the positive track, and Mike and Savon took advantage of that opportunity nearly every week of last year's summer. Mike Kolberg assisted Savon with his algebra in an attempt to be prepared for the upcoming school year.

Mike, has also taken an active role in our fundraising efforts by simply supporting the work of students and by attending nearly all of our major fundraising events. Mr. Kolberg most recently attended Cabrini Connections' Art and Film Festival that took place on April 4th and purchased not only some student produced art work, Mike also purchased the This is What I Know dvd that was created by the students from the IYP Club.

Mike has and continues to be a standout volunteer in the Cabrini Connections' program and continues to find ways to assist in our fundraising efforts, as we continue to work towards provided the necessary services for the youth and volunteers that participate in the program.

For these reasons, I would definitely like to recognize Mike Kolberg!
