CISV depends on its volunteers to run successful programs all over the world. As we are volunteering for the local program another parent is doing the same for our children in another part of the world.
We are currently in need of volunteers for the Step Up program being hosted in Cincinnati this summer, June 30 – July 22 at Seven Hills School.
There are many opportunities, both big and small, for you to help. Here is a partial list:Head Homestays, Airport Transportation, Set up and Tear down, Hospitality, Open Day and Excursions.
Hop on one of our Zoom meetings, May 6 or May 21 to get in on the planning. Sign up as a Homestay Family, volunteer your time. Check the list to see how you can help. Volunteer here.

President’s Message
Hello all!
This is an exciting and busy time of year for our chapter!
We had a great time at Regional Minicamp (RMC) hosted by the Northeast Ohio chapter several weekends ago. I loved getting to know so many of our JBers better! We got some great ideas for our chapter hosting RMC next spring.
Delegations are busily getting to know each other and preparing for their programs. This weekend we are hosting the National Leadership Training to prepare leaders, staff, and JCs for the summer.
We are hosting a 14 year old Step Up from June 30-July 22. We are excited for this great new site! With a 72 year legacy, hosting is where our chapter really shines! Where can you pitch in to make this a great program? We have many opportunities available! Sign up here.
Finally, several board positions are opening up for the coming 23-24 term. Please consider joining us! All levels of experience and background are welcome! Reach out to me at cincinnati@cisvusa.org so we can find your best fit as a chair or committee member!
b) Homestay families needed June 30-July 2 for 2 or 4 delegates. Please reach out to Martin Herrington or sign up on the Step up volunteer link. All adults in the household need background checks prior to hosting, so reach out ASAP!
c) Other ways you can support our Step Up program can be found on the volunteer link. We are in need of food donations, Kroger e-gift cards, volunteers for set up and clean up, and more! Please sign up and you will be contacted by our planning team to coordinate to fit your schedule.
