A Volunteer's Story -- Amy Sutherland

"I was fortunate enough to find out about volunteering with ElderTLC from a dear friend of mine. Because the geriatric population (especially lower socioeconomic) is one that is typically marginalized and forgotten, I was on the hunt for a volunteer opportunity that would honor and bless not only elderly people, but the facilities and workers who take care of them. Well ElderTLC turned out to be the perfect fit! It is a wonderful, well-organized non-profit charity run by some truly amazing and kind ladies. Through all their year round efforts, they are able to provide a special and beautiful shopping experience for the caretakers who are able to pick out personalized and special gifts for their residents. I can’t begin to describe how much joy this brought not only to me, but to these wonderful caretakers. They were so appreciative and grateful for this fun opportunity to shop for their elders. This truly is an amazing organization whose positive impact is far reaching. I highly recommend getting involved in whatever way suits you!"
