March 2022
Tom began volunteering in April of 2021. He has accumulated a grand total of 186 hours so far. Tom shares his time supporting the Meals on Wheels program. It was in knowing that there are people who need help or otherwise may go hungry that gave Tom the desire to be a volunteer. He also stated that he wanted to use his time after retiring in a meaningful way. When Tom is away from the Center his three grandchildren keep him pretty busy. We appreciate Tom along with all of our faithful volunteers.
