🥳This morning, at the start of this Volunteers Week we celebrated the hard work and dedication of our volunteers.
☕ Thank you to Paddy, Muriel, and all the team at McDonald's Larne for inviting us for a coffee morning in recognition of the work our volunteers do. We had a wonderful time!
📅Each week, we have many teams of volunteers, totalling just over 60 individuals, who dedicate their time to the running of Larne Foodbank;
- Those who collect donations from donation points
- Those who weigh in, check and date the donations
- Those who organise the warehouse and store
- Those who pack the emergency food parcels
- Those who greet people with a friendly smile and a warm cuppa when they come to Larne Foodbank for support
- Those who do paperwork and signpost people for further support
- Those who help manage the running of Larne Foodbank on our management committee
🫶On top of this, our volunteers support each other, pray diligently for our town, step into the gaps and go the extra mile in so many unseen ways.
💚It's in the seemingly small and humble acts of service for others, that the greatest warmth, love and hope can be found. Volunteers - thank YOU for giving up your time, for sharing your compassionate heart, and most importantly for being a part of our team!
