On Volunteering at the Clinic
“The other volunteers are great. The staff is great. It’s just an easy way to give back, and on some level it gives me purpose.
“The people here are the best. I volunteer at many places, and here the people are so happy. The tone that is set here—it’s just wonderful.
“And with the clients, we make a difference. We really make a difference.”
— Eve Jordan, Heathsville
Patients, volunteers and staff: A family affair
