“When I lost my job a few years ago, I decided to go to school and pursue Drafting Technology at CWI. Through that process, I became involved with SkillsUSA. The organization has a volunteer service program that awards people who donate time to their communities. As a Nampa Optimist Football volunteer, I logged more than 500 community service hours and ended up receiving Idaho’s first President’s Volunteer Service Award through SkillsUSA.”
