Meet our September Volunteer of the Month, Terry Sim! ✨

Terry moved to Vicenza in March 2025 to serve the military community during a two-year mission. With a background in geology and a career as an exploration geologist, she later dedicated her time to raising her four sons, volunteering in her community, and building a successful travel business.

Over the past year, Terry has shared her creativity and compassion with the Red Cross by crocheting baby hats and blankets for local families. To date, she has handcrafted 91 baby hats, bringing warmth and comfort to newborns throughout our community. In September alone, Terry contributed 52 volunteer hours.

When she's not volunteering, Terry enjoys quilting, crafting, traveling, and spending time with her growing family. We are grateful for everything she does. Thank you, Terry, for making a difference!

🐾 A big thank you to our Military Police for letting us stop by with our AVP dogs, Daphne and Lucy! Their wagging tails and friendly smiles helped brighten the day and share a little stress relief with our MPs.

Thank you to our amazing volunteers who make these connections possible. We love bringing our four-legged volunteers out into the community and look forward to more visits in the future!
