Waynesboro Senior Center Weekly Update

Chris Graham

The week of April 10-16, 2011 is Volunteer Appreciation Week. The Center wants to take this opportunity to express our heartfelt thanks to all of our volunteers.

We have volunteers working in almost all areas of our services. They truly make a difference in the lives of our clients and members. We have volunteers that work in our kitchen packing food for Meals on Wheels, deliver Meals on Wheels, present health education information, provide musical entertainment at the center, assist with administrative needs, and many other things. Tom Brokaw has been quoted as saying: “It’s easy to make a buck. It’s a lot tougher to make a difference.” We will be reaching out to our volunteers in different ways this whole month to let them know how much we appreciate them taking time to make a difference.
