Community Shares, a partner of Madison Commons, recognizes two volunteers each month. The volunteers come from Community Shares' member groups and are selected for their service to the community and to community issues.
Natalie Marshall, Midwest Environmental Advocates
Midwest Environmental Advocates is a nonprofit environmental law center that works for healthy water, air, land and government for this generation and the next. They believe that every citizen has the potential to make a difference.
Natalie Marshall showed her talent for data management shortly after she began volunteering with Midwest Environmental Advocates. She is a graduating senior at UW-Madison and is now known as the database guru. She not only developed skills to work with the Midwest Environmental Advocates’ database, but also helped them streamline their process for a more efficient system. Marshall will be with Midwest Environmental Advocates until the end of summer 2018.
