Gillis Ambassadors

Have you ever said to yourself “I want to do something for Gillis but…”? Maybe it’s because you work during the day, or didn’t really see any Gillis volunteer opportunities that tugged at your heart, or you wanted to do something special.

“When my wife and I visited Gillis several years ago, we saw what a difference Gillis makes in the lives of boys and young men who are at the must crucial stages of their lives. We believed that giving our money and time would help the boys and, consequently, our community. We believe that Gillis issues selfless love to those in need, and wanted to be a part of that sharing. When we heard that the Gillis Ambassadors were forming, we wanted to join those who are spreading the word of Gillis’ work."

Curtis Jones, President
Gillis Ambassadors

The Gillis Ambassadors’ mission is to support and meet special needs of Gillis through relationship building and “fun”d raising.
