April 16-22 is National Volunteer Appreciation Week – a time to recognize the contributions and impact of volunteers who selflessly give their time and efforts to better the communities they live in. While no words can convey the abundance of appreciation we feel, Lanakila Pacific celebrates and honors our volunteers – not just this week, but every day of the year.
Volunteers are the heart of what we do, enabling Lanakila Meals on Wheels to touch thousands of seniors’ lives across the island. Whether it be the nutritious meals they pack and deliver or the warm friendly smiles that accompany each visit, our team of dedicated volunteers help seniors remain in the comfort of their homes longer and often delay costly institutional care…
Throughout the year, we receive countless warm notes of appreciation from our seniors and their family members expressing their gratitude. Together with the kupuna we serve, we say thank you for all that our volunteers do.
