Cali Gurnicki has been a volunteer at the St Vincent de Paul's Processing Center for the past 3 years! Cali comes in with a group from Catholic Financial Life as well as on her own time.  She has also stepped forward to help with special projects when needed.

St Vincent de Paul could not continue to provide the nearly one million dollars of assistance here in Green Bay without the endless hours of dedicated service from volunteers like Cali.

Cali's level of confidence has grown over the last 3 years through her volunteer experience.  She is fun, energetic, and a joy to be around and has a positive impact on those with whom she serves.

St Vincent de Paul would like to thank you for your endless energy, fun attitude and dedication to their organization!
