Giving Thanks

This past Friday was Manna's annual thank-you dinner for its volunteers and helpers. Nearly 150 caring folks gathered at the North Montco Technical Career School - a fabulous meal was prepared by Chef Charles Cole and his students. It was a fun, low-key evening.

As part of the program, we shared some comments from the people who come to Manna. We had asked them to share their thoughts on the helpers who serve them. Some of their thoughts were:

  • I appreciate the volunteers at Manna because they are taking time out of their lives to make a difference in ours.
  • I really appreciate all the helpers at Manna on Main Street in Lansdale. I wish my sisters were as nice as them.
  • Great group of people - they are awesome and very helpful and willing to help with everything. Keep up the good work. Rock on!
  • I appreciate all the volunteer work that is done because life is hard right now and sometimes I can be very discouraged. It's good to know that there are people out there that care from their hearts. It's nice to have someone there when it is needed the most. Thank you all for everything.

Thank you all for everything; for your caring hearts; for being there when it is needed the most.

Thanks from real people in need, to those who give...
