It is with much personal sadness that I share this news. Pavi Mehta, Volunteer 
Program Coordinator, has decided, after a 3-month sojourn in India and a brief 
time back with us working remotely, that she will not be returning to Benetech 
in her current capacity. She has a book to finish with her publisher, which we 
will definitely put into the collection when it's done! 

Pavi's ability to deeply understand the act of giving has had a indelible 
impact on both the volunteer program and the operations team as a whole.  We 
couldn't just let her leave without learning even more from her, so over the 
next 6 weeks, Pavi will be on contract with us to develop a strategic plan for 
the volunteer program. We feel that focusing on strategy right now is important 
to guide the efforts of our volunteers as the program continues to evolve and 
takes on new challenges. 

Scott Rains will continue to focus on the day-to-day work of the volunteer 
program with Rick's able help, and both will assist in reviewing the strategic 
plan as it develops. The strategic plan will then be presented to and approved 
by Betsy and Jim, and the final approved plan will inform our program and 
staffing needs. 

Please join me in wishing Pavi "all good things" as she continues on her path 
in life. Her presence will be missed greatly.

Nicole
