As of this writing, SAFE volunteers have logged 10,465 hours so far in 2026.

Since we all know you record your time perfectly in Volgistics, that makes it an easy task for me to share our gratitude for each hour of service: thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you, thank you… and wow. That’s only 80 hours, and I’m already out of breath.

It takes an astonishing amount of work to fulfill SAFE’s mission, and there are no words which can truly express how grateful we are for your support.

How about we have some ice cream instead?

RSVP below for SAFE’s annual Volunteer Appreciation Ice Cream Social. And whether you’re able to attend the party or not, be sure to request your free 2026 volunteer appreciation t-shirt.

At the party, you will get

• Ice cream by the scoop (dairy-free options available), root beer floats, and lots of toppings!
• A chance to pick up your 2026 volunteer appreciation t-shirt
• And a chance to take another awesome group photo (donkeys not guaranteed)
