Some people stay out in the sun too long these days. Not our volunteer drivers. They're away from one stop and quickly into their vehicles, checking their route sheets, then heading off to visit with another of their neighbors.
    They take with them great meals and the hopes and good wishes of an entire community: for speedy recovery from ill health, for strength to endure disabilities, for comfort, peace – and a cool place out of the sun.
     You could be such a community ambassador. Try driving a route for Friendship Trays. You provide the gas. We provide the meals and beverages, the route directions, the help by phone if you get lost on the route, and the big THANK YOU! on behalf of the hundreds of your neighbors who depend on Friendship Trays volunteers to bring them nutritious food that they can no longer prepare for themselves.
     Interested? Give Volunteer Coordinator Lani Lawrence a call at 704-333-9229 or e-mail her about getting started on a schedule that suits your schedule.
