A Place to Turn

Through my position, I get to meet many caring individuals in our county that want to help and make a difference. The communal spirit I see from  volunteers, donors and public officials is inspiring. There is no better feeling than when you brighten the day of someone in their time of need.

I love being able to have such an impact in the community. It is a great feeling to have volunteer groups come together every week to pack over 500 bags to send out to the local schools to ensure that students have food over the weekend. It is great to work for an organization that has been such an entity in this community and continues to do great work and serve so many people.

Our clients. I believe in what we do, so that is a bonus! However, my favorite part of my job
is talking to our clients and telling anyone that will listen about what we do at SRSH. During COVID, I got to spend a lot of time on the phone with people and chat more than what I could do in the pre-COVID world. I am honored that people have allowed me to help them and have shared their stories with me.

The staff is a very nice group of people. It feels nice to be a part of a great cause, especially
to a community that was once home to me.

I have worked in the nonprofit sector for the past seven years and have been in the Scott's Run area for the past four years. I love being able to have the opportunity to give back to my community and help those in need. I'm excited to be part of the team here at SRSH and help people in the community.

I serve as the BSW Student Intern here at SRSH. I hope to one day start my own nonprofit organization and I'm excited for the opportunity to learn more here at SRSH!
