Volunteers are the heart of a community. Our volunteers are a valuable resource for our fast-growing, fast-paced city. In 2021, there were a total of 534 volunteers serving a cumulative total of 15,158 hours of time to the City of Frisco with a value of $432,595.05.
The City of Frisco relies on our volunteers for everything from staffing special events - such as Frisco Freedom Fest and Merry Main Street - to assisting departments with daily activities, such as shelving library books, filing records or using GIS equipment.
April is National Volunteer Appreciation month
In honor of National Volunteer Month, our 'Top 12' volunteers, along with volunteers who donated more than 20 hours, were treated to Frisco RoughRiders game where Mayor Jeff Cheney presented our Top Volunteers with their awards.
We love all our MVPs - but two volunteers really 'hit it out of the park' in 2021!
2021 Volunteer of the Year: Vic Castioni - Frisco Police Department, 758 hours.
2021 Teen Volunteer of the Year: Frisco High student, Eden Wolfe - Frisco Fire Safety Town presented by Texas Health Hospital Frisco, 114 hours.
Cheers to our Top 12:
Donna Anderson, Douglas Baxter, Robert Burton, Vic Castioni, Judith Clark, Bob Johns, Mary Elizabeth Jones, Bob Moroch, Arthur Powers, Carol Thomas, Donna Waldrop, and Eden Wolfe.
