Staff is friendly and informative. Offered a tour with history of how it came to be. Tasks had easy to follow instructions and it felt good knowing that everyone's work is for a great cause. They offered break time and refreshments. I enjoyed what I was doing so the break wasn't entirely necessary because time flew by so quickly! I plan to volunteer there again, in fact I would love to make it to as many events as I can. Thank you so much to the staff for allowing me to take part in such a kind act. Whoever is reading this, I hope you take volunteering for them into high consideration, you won't regret it! Be blessed.

Never had so much fun folding clothes! Tracy was great with coordinating with me and Otha and Jerry were awesome at the event. I will definitely be coming back to help out again!
