Many of the nonprofits were seeking support from local businesses including volunteers
MBA representatives said when businesses help charities, everyone benefits.
"We know for many of our business members, it's a great way to give back, not only to the community but to their employees [and] to do team building," said Lori Joint, MBA vice president. "They're looking for opportunities, and we know there are so many volunteer opportunities out there."
Organizers hope to make the volunteer fair an annual event.
