Make a Difference
You're invited to join us. The Roanoke area Plowshare group is a non-profit, volunteer organization with a long tradition of activism. For almost 50 years, people young and old, have worked to improve their neighborhoods, schools, and local government. In addition, we've stood up for many political and social causes that affect our national and international affairs. We are secular, not sectarian, and we try to make the world a little better place.
Maybe Interested in Volunteering?
Then contact us! Young or old, we welcome everyone who wants to help. Please call our Outreach Coordinator, Gary Sandman: at (540) 492-3582 or send an email to: plowshare@plowshareva.org
