Volunteer Appreciation Luncheon
Thanks to all our great volunteers! Every individual that gives even an hour of their time is a partner in helping us succeed in our mission to care for those less fortunate in our community. This year's luncheon recognized Terry Mellor- volunteer extrordinaire, who has helped with every WARM event and fund raiser in the past year as well as on site time in the soup kitchen and Attire for Hire. WARM was pleased to honor Frank Terranova, long time soup kitchen volunteer and his son Dave Terranova. Dave, proprietor of the Pizza Lady supplies lunch for WARM's soup kitchen two days a week!
