Starting out Strong

Mondays can be a day that most people dislike simply because it heralds the end of the weekend and the beginning of another week of work. However, for HSP, Monday means a day when a generous group of volunteers arrive to help with the Senior Citizen Project. This group of volunteers, usually around 6 or 7 people, comes in every Monday morning and graciously spends several hours of their day sorting food and paper products. Through the efforts of these regular food sorting volunteers and another smaller group that volunteers on Wednesdays, HSP is able to have prepared packages delivered to the seniors in the Senior Citizen Project, something that would not be possible without the aid of the volunteers.

This Saturday is HSP’s monthly delivery day for the needy seniors enrolled in our Senior Citizen Project. HSP is continually able to provide these 123 needy seniors with nutritious food thanks to the aid of supporters and volunteers like these regular food sorters. If you would like to make a difference in the DuPage and Kane County areas, please feel free to contact HSP by phone at (630)221-8340 or by email at hsp@humanitarianservice.org.
