CHAC Seeks Volunteer Valets for Art and Wine Festival

The Mountain View non-profit again partners with the Chamber of Commerce to fundraise for their services.

Combine fun with service the Community Health Awareness Council suggests.

The Mountain View non-profit needs volunteers to help park cars during the Mountain View Art & Wine Festival, according to Executive Director Monique Kane.

For the two days of the festival—Saturday, Sept. 7 and Sunday, Sept. 8—CHAC will manage the $5 parking lots and it gets to keep the money it collects.

In 2012, CHAC made nearly about $8,000 during the festival. To raise that same amount they need nearly 100 volunteers to take on three-hour shifts each.

CHAC—an organization that serves Mountain View, Los Altos, Los Altos Hills and it's related school districts—offers programs which helps address the emotional problems affecting children, teens, adults and families.
