Sharing our “Attitude of Gratitude” during National Volunteer Week and All Year Long!

By Emmett Findley, Director of Communications

During National Volunteer Week, God’s Love was honored to recognize and celebrate the tremendous time, love, and care, our volunteers put in to all they do at God’s Love We Deliver all year long. Whether our volunteers are in the kitchen, on the roads delivering, packing bags in meal kit assembly, answering phones in the office, assisting with special events or more, every individual makes a difference in the lives of our neighbors living with illness.

This year, to express our gratitude, we officially launched our “Year of Gratitude” activities. All year long we will be sharing special expressions of gratitude at events and via messaging, and it is only fitting that we started this campaign by sharing our “attitude of gratitude” with our volunteers.

To our volunteers, we say thank you:

For giving us your time, your helping hands, your whole hearts.

Ours is a human-powered mission, and your dedication is the fuel that moves it forward. 

We want to say thank you–and some friends and familiar faces want to thank you too.

Gratitude Everywhere

We decked out the building and Volunteer Lounge with messages of gratitude all over the place.

I Scream, You Scream, We Screamed for Nightingale Ice Cream Sandwiches!

Our friends at Nightingale Ice Cream Sandwiches generously donated “Nicky’s Blondie,” in partnership with our Board member, Nicky Hilton. Our volunteers couldn’t get enough of that honeycomb ice cream and graham cracker cookie!

Making our Gratitude Shareable on Social

And on social media all week, our staff across departments expressed messages of gratitude for our volunteers. See below for our shoutouts on social media!

We thank our volunteers during National Volunteer Week — and all year long — for their dedication to and loving care for our clients and our life-saving mission!
