About Us

The Marshall County FRN is a catalyst of change, an organization that is

responsive to the needs and opportunities in the community. Partnering

with community members and public and private organizations, the FRN

develops innovative projects and provides needed resources for area. The

FRN’s initiatives demonstrate our organization’s commitment to

community development in the region. Over the years, the FRN has

worked on building a network of collaborative relationships within the

county, understanding that our accomplishments are most successful when

we are not acting alone.

The FRN began developing this Volunteer Resource Guide with the goal

of increasing community engagement and involvement in volunteerism.

Many organizations exist in Marshall County that provide needed and

valuable services to residents that can greatly benefit from the assistance

that volunteers provide. Our aim with this undertaking is to increase

awareness of where volunteer needs exist, and to link these needs with

those who are looking for ways to give back in their local communities.

The FRN feels that involvement in volunteerism is an important

component of community engagement and we hope that this guide will

serve as a way for community members to become more involved with

service opportunities in Marshall County and the surrounding areas.
