LLI/NOVA Relies Upon Volunteers

What is Volunteerism?

The Lifetime Learning Institute of Northern Virginia (LLI/NOVA) is operated by volunteers.  Our existence and success depend on tapping the talents and time of our members.  We strongly encourage continuing and new members to seek some aspect of LLI/NOVA that will be rewarded by your contribution of expertise and/or time.  Getting involved not only affords personal enrichment but assures LLI/NOVA’s continued growth and prosperity.

To contribute your time and expertise, check out this list of opportunities waiting for you:
