What is it like to volunteer for Little Sisters of the Poor?
I began volunteering about 2 years ago and I have enjoyed every day I “work.” Typically, I spend my time with the Activities Department doing arts and crafts with the residents, but I have also helped serve lunch in the dining room, worked with the Development Office on special projects and traveled with residents to ball games and Meijer outings.
There are many reasons I enjoy volunteering at Little Sisters, but the two main reasons are the variety of opportunities and the people with whom I work. There are many activities I can participate in, and the residents and the staff are so pleasant and grateful for all I do.
Although my contribution is a small one, everyone makes me feel special, needed and appreciated. It’s a great place to volunteer my time.
