OHMH Opens Field Office in Orlando

Vanessa PuleoVanessa Puleo recently joined the One Heart - Many Hands staff and will be responsible for our continuing operations in Orlando. (In June 2009, more than 2000 OHMH volunteers completed more than 100 home repair projects in Central Florida. ) Building on these efforts, Vanessa will be working in partnership with the Orange County Mayor's office and the Orange Blossom Trail Development Board to recruit volunteers and organize year-round public service projects. The concept of establishing a permanent presence in major metropolitan areas following our large scale, week-long projects, reflects the long term vision of One Heart - Many Hands. It is our intention to repeat this model following our week-long, large scale efforts this summer in Columbus, OH.
