I decided IVC Mission the perfect symbol for the Ignatian Volunteer The Ignatian Volunteer Corps is a Corps would be a mirror because what’s most national community service organization of volunteers and for volunteers, and distinctive about us is … (get ready) spiritual is affiliated with the . reflection. Ideas for the back of the mirror began Ignatian Volunteers, men and women age to surface: 50 and over, come together to serve the needs of people who are poor; to work for There’s nothing like Ignatian reflection... Join IVC. a more just society; and to grow through discussion and reflection in the Ignatian May you reflect like St. Ignatius did... Join IVC. tradition. Are you the “I” in IVC? Join IVC.

Probably wise I never wasted my time pursuing a career in advertising, right? Board of Directors Chair, William Anderson We survey our partner service sites, the nonprofits where Ignatian Volunteers Vice-Chair, Kitty Higgins work, and ask what has been most helpful about being a partner to IVC and Secretary, Mark Hallinan, SJ Treasurer, Chuck Krambuhl having an Ignatian Volunteer. Answers are sometimes general: “Mary has been a Executive Director, Suzanne Geaney Sharon Browning great addition to our work,” sometimes enthusiastic, “We could use several more William Buckley Ignatian Volunteers like Jose” and sometimes quite specific, “We would not have James R. Conroy, SJ Frank Dicello the (name of program) without Pat’s services.” Robert Harper Bernie Long As you probably know, an Ignatian Volunteer commits to serving 2 days a week Pam Lucey Paul McElligott for 10 months a year. That’s a big part of why partners treasure their Ignatian John McLaughlin Ed Plocha Volunteers. IVC provides the programs with mature, competent, consistent and Kathleen Polk professional help. Ignatian Volunteers bring a variety of skills and experience Richard Ralphson Barbara Schubert to the people and programs they serve, and the programs are as varied as the Sheila Smith Bill Whitaker Volunteers – schools, prisons, shelters, immigration and refugee services, adult education, job training, day care and child care, food banks, hospice care, nursing IVC Staff and healthcare, English as second language, counseling, parenting programs. Suzanne Geaney, Executive Director Tamara Zavislan, Director of Development One program director said of his Ignatian Volunteer: Jennifer Anthony, Director of Operations His ability to bridge the gap of age, culture and lifestyle helps the students Regional Directors take a risk and try something new. This man shows genuine care and Sean Agniel concern for the lives of the men and women of this program. This is all Margie Carroll Catherine Duer done without judgment and without prescription. The fact that a major Eileen Harding Jerry Heinrichs component of the IVC program is indeed reflection, is what I believe has Jim Kelley led to the success he has had with our students. Liz McMahon Bill Macsherry Jennifer Mangali Maybe my mirror analogy isn’t completely wacky after all. What IVC seeks to Meg Mannix Terri Nelson do is reflect to others the love of Jesus – as St. Ignatius directed: Sam Schloemer George Sullivan “Love consists in sharing what one has and what one is National Office with those one loves. Love ought to show itself in deeds more than in words.” 801 St. Paul St., Baltimore, MD 21202 410-752-4686 • 888-831-4686 www.ivcusa.org Sincerely,
