🌟Volunteer Spotlight: Celebrating Nearly 10 Years of Service!🌟

This week, we're excited to spotlight one of our dedicated FOCUS Neighborhood Meals Meal Coordinators, Dawn T! Dawn has been making a difference in our community for almost a decade!

💛How long have you been volunteering with FOCUS Neighborhood Meals?
"Just shy of 10 years."

💛Why did you get involved with FOCUS Neighborhood Meals?
" I first got involved with The Neighborhood Table when my church, Our Lady Queen of Heaven, was sponsoring the meal. It was away to teach my two young boys the importance of giving back and caring for the community. When my oldest son left for college and I had less daily parental responsibility, I decided to become a regular core volunteer, first helping with “to-go” meals, and then several weeks later joining as a meal coordinator as well."

💛What do you like to do in your free time outside of volunteering?
"I love running and playing pickleball. I love tending to my yard and my many flower gardens. I have two cute Chihuahuas who are my shadows. I am a fierce and loyal fan of Iowa Hawkeye football and basketball. I plan to be spending a lot more time in Arizona, where my oldest son lives, as I will become a grandmother in the next several months."

💛What is your favorite meal that has been served/favorite meal to prepare at FOCUS?
"I would have to say my favorite meal at FOCUS is Mike E's meatloaf! It’s simply the best!"

💛Why should others get involved with FOCUS?
"I think it is wonderful to see basic needs in our community being met by our community. To be able to offer a meal to somebody who is food insecure or offer fellowship to somebody who is lonely is a gift. It is a way to offer God given time, treasures and talents."

✨From teaching her sons the value of community service to helping lead weekly meals, Dawn embodies the spirit of giving back. We're grateful for her nearly 10 years of dedication, compassion, and leadership. Just take a look at her awesome family pictured below! Dawn is on the far left.

Thank you for helping make our community stronger, one meal and one connection at a time!

✨Volunteer Spotlight: Meet One of Our Wonderful FOCUS Neighborhood Meals Meal Coordinators - Terry K!✨

This week, we're thrilled to spotlight Terry K! For the past 2 years, Terry has been helping make a difference in our community one meal at a time.

❤️Why did you get involved with FOCUS Neighborhood Meals?
"My childhood friend asked me to; I wanted to do something that would benefit my community, & I like to cook."

❤️Why should others get involved with FOCUS?
"This is generally a very friendly, happy group to work with; the "work" is not too hard & there are a variety of positions to choose from; it's important to stay involved in our community."

👏Whether you're a seasoned volunteer or looking for a place to get started, FOCUS offers a welcoming environment where you can make meaningful connections while giving back.
