CVAC Member Picnic 2023

Chemung Volunteer Action Corps (CVAC)

Volunteers are very important to Chemung County. Thousands of individuals volunteer their time to a variety of Extension and community activities, contributing tens of thousands of hours each year! CVAC volunteers are either "enrolled" and fully engaged in one or more of CCE's educational programs, or "affiliated" with one or more of nearly 100 partner organizations.

Through duties as diverse as teaching others to prune trees or making compost, answering callers' questions on consumer or gardening issues, mentoring young people as they acquire new skills, or serving as board members or on committees that guide our work, volunteers represent Extension's far-reaching roots in our community.
