WE ARE IN NEED OF VOLUNTEERS!!!  

     Right now, today, this minute.....we need people willing to deliver Home Delivered Meals to seniors in the communities of Middletown and Hidden Valley Lake.  We offer mileage and a free lunch!  What could be better that that! It is a sit down job while you are driving, and then turns into a very specific task of delivering our seniors their meal of the day. Your mileage is compensated if you so wish.  Call 987-3113.

     Also, we are in need of those energetic, helpful servers for our lunch meal. While serving others, you can get to know new faces and also enjoy a free lunch!

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.

VOLUNTEERS’ CORNER

“What we have done for ourselves alone dies with us; what we have done for others and the world remains and is immortal.”  ~Albert Pike

Helen Kruljac is one of our regular volunteer greeters. She recently has added volunteering in the Thrift Store to her resume. Helen is serious about her work and very pleasant. We appreciate all that Helen does to make our seniors’ dining and shopping experiences pleasant. Those who can, do.  Those who can do more, volunteer.

Leighton Alt volunteers as a greeter “any time we ask”. He is, also, one of our Board members. Leighton is a treasure. He is conscientious and dependable. He is definitely a “go to guy” when we need an extra hand.
