✨October’s Volunteer of the Month✨
Terri, we are thrilled to recognize Terri as our Volunteer of the Month! In the six months since Terri joined Pantry, she has made an extraordinary impact on our community.
Terri has wholeheartedly embraced her role delivering food to our homebound clients, but she’s done so much more than simply drop off supplies. She takes the time to connect with each person she meets, building meaningful relationships that brighten their days and remind them they’re not alone. Her warmth and genuine care shine through in every interaction.
Going above and beyond is simply who Terri is. Not only does she faithfully make her delivery rounds, but she also regularly donates our most-needed supplies, ensuring we can continue serving those who depend on us.
When asked why she volunteers, Terri shared that she’s always wanted to give back and help people. Well, Terri, you’re doing exactly that—and then some. Your dedication, generosity, and compassionate spirit embody everything we value at Pantry.
Thank you, Terri, for your incredible service and for making our community a better place. We’re so grateful to have you on our team!
