Volunteer of the Month: August 2015

Every month our Volunteer department sorts through piles of nominations from supervisors and honors one of our volunteers for their truly stupendous efforts. Meet this month's volunteer!

Our volunteers are committed to the work they do, and we are thrilled when they apply their experience and knowledge outside of the Aquarium walls. For that reason and more, we are excited to name Allison Onofrio as our August Volunteer of the Month!



Here is her Allison’s supervisor, Meaghan-Elizabeth Foster, has to say about Allison:

Allison is a volunteer I can always count on. She travels down every week from school in NH to volunteer. She also often volunteers for longer shifts than required. She has taken what she has learned from the Aquarium and made changes in her community by convincing her sorority’s chef to switch from preparing Atlantic salmon to Pacific salmon, a more sustainable option. She consistently gets positive feedback from Mystery Shoppers and just won Outstanding Team member for her smiley positive attitude and ability to answer visitor questions with ease.

Thank you, Allison!
