ABOUT THIS PODCAST 🔗
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!
