Congratulations Courtney!
From Yohan:
Courtney joined us this summer, quickly becoming an all-star by putting a hand up to help lead the Drive-Thru, bringing new volunteers, and completing a variety of training opportunities. We are made better by her service, which is carried out with warmth and a self-deprecating desire to improve.
From Courtney:
Volunteering at Heart to Heart has been such a wonderful experience. I love the good feeling that comes from giving back to our community, especially during this time of greater need. When it seems like the world is in a darker place, I love coming to Heart to Heart to see us all coming together in a positive way. The volunteers are always so friendly and helpful, and I am so inspired by Yohan and his weekly newsletter messages. I also greatly enjoy the opportunities to speak to the folks who come through, hearing their stories, and hopefully sharing a smile or laugh to brighten each other’s day.
Over the summer, I also brought my two daughters along to volunteer with me. They loved helping out, and I know it made an important impact on their perspectives that will hopefully drive their ongoing desire to give back to the community. I have told others about Heart to Heart, as well, and hope to continue to bring friends and family going forward. It is such an amazing group of people doing vital work, and I am honored to be a part of it. Thank you so much for this nomination!
