    Description

    The Dragonfly Project is seeking volunteers for our "Adopt-A-State" Program. This involves being assigned an area (State, group of counties, or city) and periodically monitoring funeral homes in your assigned area for obituaries that meet our suggested criteria. We will train you on how to find mailing addresses for the surviving loved ones, and you'll address envelopes that other volunteers will eventually insert cards with "The Dragonfly Story" printed in them, along with dragonfly keychains. This volunteer job is fully remote, and we just ask that you spend at least 3 hours per month whenever possible. Training will be provided. We'd love to talk with you about this opportunity!
