Volunteer Highlights

20th Anniversary Videos
​Faith in Action Volunteers have been working long and hard over the past years.  As a way to celebrate its 20th Anniversary, Faith in Action for Cass County will highlight volunteers several times a month throughout 2021. Volunteers will be recognized for their services and awarded $20 gas cards and other prizes.
During the summer of 2020 our Intern, Paul Espeland, interviewed volunteers, staff and people served by Faith in Action to tell the story of what we do. Videos will be put on throughout 2021. Watch for new ones coming soon!
Faith in Action’s Data Coordinator Annette Bonin gives Volunteer Les Olson a gas card in thanks for his services to people in Cass County.
Les Olson of Backus has volunteered with Faith in Action for Cass County since 2012. He has provided over 420 hours of services providing transportation and delivering meals on wheels to remote areas of Cass County. Olson has logged over 23,600 miles helping his neighbors in need.
 When asked why he has volunteered for so many years Olson stated, “Volunteering gets me out of the house, and I like to meet people.” As a thank you, Olson received a $20 gas card from Southside Station in Hackensack.
