Blythe Daigle, the former program director of Hands On Baton Rouge, has been named as the city-parish’s chief service officer, coordinating volunteer efforts around East Baton Rouge. The new position is being paid for by a two-year, $200,000 grant awarded by the Rockefeller Foundation and New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s foundation. Daigle will serve as a “volunteer czar,” determining what areas have the most pressing need for volunteers and serving as a resource for volunteers. She has spent the last eight years in leadership roles with local nonprofits, including Hands On Baton Rouge and VolunTEENS.
