VOLUNTEERS

      Volunteers are essential to the Senior Center!  They ensure that we can continue to serve the seniors in Middletown, Cobb and Hidden Valley Lake areas. They serve as  welcoming greeters to assist at lunchtime with signing in and providing direction.  Volunteer drivers make it possible to provide our Meals on Wheels program, which is a lifeline between seniors and the "outside world".  Our drivers are on the job five days a week, checking on our 'shut-ins" and reporting any severe changes in their health.  Servers are ever busy serving beverages and plates of food to the lunch guests.  Volunteer librarians tend to the video lending library making it easy to check out from a large supply of videos for home use.  Gardeners use their talents to ensure our garden boxes are well tended and supply fresh produce for our lunches.  Our own mailman picks up the mail daily and delivers to office.  We have a birthday caller who calls and wishes each one a happy birthday each month.  Thrift store workers sort, label, display and organize many wonderful treasures in the thrift store.  Volunteers sweep floors,  work in the office, help with newsletter, set tables, wash windows and more.  Board Members help direct and work tirelessly in support of the center. And of course, there are always our fund-raising opportunities for volunteering.  We appreciate each one and encourage you to get involved and share your talents.

VOLUNTEER CORNER

     Our dedicated and reliable volunteers help support a wide range of essential services for our Center.  Our volunteers represent hours and hours of free labor—a must for a non-profit organization.

 

     Donald Aleksa is one of our cherished home delivery drivers.  He delivers to our Middletown seniors.  He is dependable, courteous, caring, and always on time.   Without our drivers, we wouldn’t be able to help make it possible for our seniors to remain in their own homes.  Thank you Donald for everything you do.

 

     Another Board of Directors member, Kathy Roberts, assists here, there, and everywhere.  She not only serves as a board member, but assists in the office, waits tables, cleans, visits shut-ins, and, on occasion, shops at our Thrift Store.  We truly appreciate all that you do.  You are a true asset, and we are very thankful for you.

 

      Volunteering can help you reduce stress and combat depression.  If you would be interested in joining our volunteers, let Tessie or Lori in the office know.  No experience is necessary.  Too shy?  Sign up with a friend.
