This week our Volunteer Spotlight is focused on Miss Wanda!
Wanda has such a nurturing spirit! She devoted 20 years to helping other people plan, plant and maintain their gardens. The rewards she reaped from the knowledge she shared was overflowing!
She is also quite the seamstress! Wanda spent 12 years doing customized drapes. What a valuable skill!
Now, she shares her talent with us by making our wonderful t-shirt bags! She makes these from t-shirts that we are unable to use because of a stain or company logo. These bags are strong and hold a lot! The best part is they can be washed and reused and our clients absolutely love them to carry their clothing and items home.
Although Wanda is not at the Center daily, she is an integral part of the services we provide. Her passion for loving and helping others is far reaching and her children and grandchildren are at the top of the list!
When asked why she volunteers, she said that she needed a worthwhile project that she could do at home. With a big smile, Wanda quickly added that she enjoys making the bags for everyone that comes to the Center and loves the opportunity to give back. Thank you, Wanda, for all you do!
