I am constantly amazed at the level of participation by our volunteers. They come from different backgrounds, churches, and businesses. This week I wanted to highlight a group employed by General ELectric. One of the engineers organized a group of their employees to participate each Tuesday night serving the homeless and less fortunate in Greenville.
Many of the other volunteers not only serve on Tuesday nights but also during the week. One volunteer meets regularly with a couple of the homeless during the week for coffee. Another volunteer has spent many hours in the emergency room assisting the homeless with their medical needs. They all have shown that caring for those less fortunate is not just one day a week. Food for Life is fortunate to have those types of caring volunteers.
Last Tuesday was calm compared to the previous week. We served 108 hot meals with the assistance of 18 volunteers.
