During this month of April, we acknowledge and honor the generosity of our volunteers who make it possible for HELPERS to serve our area seniors. Volunteering is a choice. A choice to give back to society and make a difference. A choice to strengthen personal ties to the community. A choice to find a sense of purpose and meaning in life. A choice to improve one’s own well-being. This month, and always, we celebrate our wonderful team of volunteers!”
