The club’s positive approach, upbeat outlook, and commitment to creating a more optimistic future for kids is what differentiates the Optimist Club of Van Wert from other volunteer opportunities.
Club members receive as much as they give:
- The fellowship of people who get things done and the example they set for embracing a similar optimist mindset
- New social and working relationships with individuals from a cross section of the community
- The opportunity to develop and demonstrate leadership skills
- The satisfaction of making a difference in the lives of children and the community
