TESTIMONIALS

Marga, Client

"I have a job. I was told that it didn’t matter: I was a community member with a serious health issue who did not drive. They told me about the socials, museum visits, and rides available for doctor’s appointments and grocery shopping. I also receive fresh produce delivered twice a month to my doorstep! Lend A Hand has significantly improved the quality of my life: I don’t

have to worry about getting to a doctor’s appointment, finding a ride to the bank, or meeting new people—clients and volunteers.”

Robert, Volunteer

“Tom Miller was a writer whose work I’d read and enjoyed. Tom wrote for Rolling Stone and other, more obscure, music journals of the day. There was a second (or so I thought) writer named Tom Miller, who wrote about cultural interactions between the United States and Latin America. Turns out, it was the same guy. Turns out, I owned two of his books and even a CD. As a Lend A Hand volunteer, it’s been a real pleasure getting to know him.”

Tom, Client

“Lend A Hand has been a terrific service for me. Twice a week they give me rides to and from physical therapy, or the doctor’s office. This is something my wife, a full-time teacher, cannot fit into her schedule. I’ve gotten to know many of the drivers and enjoy their company. When my condition deteriorated somewhat and I had to use a wheelchair the Lend a Hand volunteers installed wooden ramps in my house.”

Tamara, Client

"I've known about LAH for a while and recently have needed their assistance. I look forward to meeting new people at the monthly luncheons and joining the Writers Group. Thank you, volunteers!

Ben, Client

Client

"LAH is such an extraordinary group—one couldn't ask for a more caring group of people! They have helped me immensely."

"Smooth Moves yoga class has helped me so much. I'm 80 years old and have arthritis. Thanks, Lend A Hand!"
