At Seniors in Service, we’ve seen how volunteering doesn’t just transform lives; it brings families closer. Whether it’s couples serving together in school classrooms or food pantries, these shared acts of service become powerful moments of connection and purpose.
Take Lenita, a devoted Senior Companion whose story reminds us how service often grows beyond the person who signs up.
For over two years, Lenita has visited the Jones family, offering friendship, support, and a caring presence that has brightened their days. When Mr. Jones began struggling to get in and out of his home due to being in a wheelchair, Lenita knew he needed more than a listening ear; he needed a solution.
Without hesitation, her husband joined her mission. He lovingly built a sturdy ramp for Mr. Jones. There was no fanfare, just a deep desire to help someone his wife cared about. These stories of teamwork and compassion inspire us every day.
