✨ Meet Our Volunteer - Donna Gatti✨

"I've been with ESS since November 2025, and it has truly been a gift. Both of my parents were clients of the program, and being part of such a supportive community made a huge difference in their lives. Volunteering is my way of giving back."

One of Donna's favorite memories is playing her violin during the Christmas season and hearing clients sing carols together. But it's the simple conversations, shared smiles, and meaningful connections that bring her the most joy every time she visits.

Thank you for sharing your time, talents, and heart with our community. 💙
