Our Volunteers

Compassionate, skilled volunteers are the heart and soul of COSTI.

COSTI was founded by volunteers, and continues to rely on their generosity and commitment.

One of the most critical areas that relies on the support and commitment of volunteers is fundraising. From the members of COSTI's Development Council to the individuals working behind the scenes of our events, COSTI is extremely fortunate to have the support of hundreds of volunteers who so generously donate their time and talents to ensuring the success of our efforts.

We couldn't do it without them.

COSTI's Development Council

The COSTI Development Council is a committee of the Board of Directors that has been established to provide volunteer support and guidance for all of COSTI's fundraising efforts.

The Development Council is responsible for designing and implementing an annual fundraising plan, ensuring that all of the resulting activities are consistent with COSTI policies, and that they reflect and support COSTI's vision and mission.

Members of the Development Council are also highly active in educating and encouraging others to participate in COSTI's fundraising activities as donors and volunteers; promoting events and activities; identifying and cultivating prospective supporters; and monitoring the progress of COSTI's fundraising efforts.

Members of the Development Council include:

• Vittoria Adhami, Chair
• John Spina
