Rob Milroy, CISP’s Unsung Hero
Unsung Hero — Rob Milroy
Volunteer Mentor and Board Chair, Communities In Schools of Peninsula
March 2, 2018
Resident of Gig Harbor, married, two children
Rob Milroy started volunteering in the local community after moving to Gig Harbor about six years ago. A Peninsula High School assistant soccer coach, he’s especially passionate about education — which is why, perhaps, he delivers snacks for after-school programs as part of his volunteer work at the Gig Harbor Fish Food Bank.
One organization he devotes much of his time to is Communities In Schools of Peninsula, where he is a volunteer mentor and currently the chair of the board of directors. Milroy is one of CISP’s 135 volunteers, who over the past year alone contributed a combined 4,100 volunteer hours.
