Dear Volunteer,
Thank you so much for helping us out at the soup kitchen. We are always in need of volunteers who are hard-working, organized and get along well with the people we serve.

It’s only with the assistance of local volunteers such as yourself that we can rise to meet the challenge.
Keep being an inspiration.
