In this episode of the Volunteer Spotlight, host Evan Starnes welcomes Melissa Bonnette, the Volunteer of the Month for March, to discuss her extensive journey with AfterSight, the evolution of audio reading, and the importance of community feedback. They explore Melissa's personal experiences, her recording setup, and the impact of volunteering on both the volunteers and the community.
Since 1991, hundreds of volunteers have been bringing print to life through audio for those that are blind and low vision in Colorado. Each month, we select a particularly outstanding volunteer to be interviewed by Evan Starnes and Jennifer Neptune to talk about what it means to be a volunteer, how they got involved, and of course, there is always time for some fun questions to spice up the show!
