  • ALLAIRE VOLUNTEER SPOTLIGHT.....MEET MAT! How long have you been volunteering for? I have been at Allaire Village since October, 2018. What is your favorite part about volunteering? The feeling of wholeness I get is difficult to explain. The village has been a saving grace and being with the great group of people here as well as being able to learn and grow is amazing! What is your favorite memory from volunteering at Allaire? A favorite memory is hard to come up with because every day here and every experience I have here is just as good as the next. The amount of knowledge I have obtained is unreal. I am so blessed to have the village and my fellow volunteers in my life! What have you learned from your volunteer experience? I have learned a large variety of things from the history of the village to the trade of Blacksmithing as well as some geography of NJ. My communication skills have improved as well as my ability to convey information to educate those around me! #allaire #allairevillage #allairestatepark #volunteer #volunteering #jerseyshore #giving #history #historic #villagelife #getinvolved #nj #njstateparks
