Today, we are taking the time to highlight a few of our regular
volunteers who graciously donate their personal time and energy to help us with
our Senior Citizen Project. Without
further ado, we would like to introduce you to three of our wonderful
volunteers!
Every
Wednesday morning, you can find Judi Simon and Bernie Bartelli (pictured right)
in HSP’s warehouse, sorting food or doing a variety of other preparatory tasks
to make sure the Senior Citizen Project runs smoothly. Judi and Bernie have been invaluable
volunteers, allowing us to ensure that all of the seniors enrolled in the
project are supplied with food and any other items they need.
Another person whose efforts do
not go unnoticed around HSP is Ginna Ericksen, our volunteer Secret Pal
Coordinator (pictured left). Every
senior enrolled in the Senior Citizen Project gets matched up with a Secret Pal,
or a volunteer donor, who purchases items from the senior’s wishlist. Ginna organizes all of the Secret Pal gifts
each month, ensuring that the right gifts go to the right seniors come Delivery
Day.
With
our busiest season of Christmas fast approaching, the volunteers mentioned here
have been selfless with their time, and all have lent a helping hand. For Judi, Bernie, and Ginna, we here at HSP
are truly grateful. There is also some
extra appreciation due to Ginna, who has taken on a lot of extra work by
assisting HSP staff to organize the senior giving trees for our Christmas Offering.
Thank you!
