Volunteers Rock!

One of my favorite aspects of working at Lost & Found is having the opportunity to see committed volunteers assist us in meeting the different needs we have around our facility. The list of needs can be both extensive and diverse for three reasons: 1. We have to do most projects for free, or minimal cost, 2. We only have three full-time staff members, and 3. Our facility, The Conor House, is a 100-year old house. 

One group of volunteers that readily comes to mind are the generous people at JP Chase Morgan Company.  For the second time in a few months, Chase associates came to lend us a hand.  
The first group of volunteers came in March.  They spent an entire day painting, cleaning, and organizing our facility.  They were all so pleasant and willing to help out in any manner we asked them to.  They really helped us create a welcoming and homey environment.  It would have taken us weeks to accomplish what this team did in a matter of hours.
The second group of people from Chase worked for an afternoon in our yard.  They brought wheelbarrows and rakes, and came ready to work hard.  Our gardens and landscaping were in serious need of TLC, and thanks to this group of hard workers, they got exactly that!  

Thank you Chase Volunteers!  We appreciate all that you have done!
