Les, a volunteer driver who has recently retired, shares why he loved being a volunteer:

“Being a volunteer gave me great satisfaction. Not only was I helping the community but I met so many nice people. Whatever time you can spare is appreciated and the thought that you are contributing is a wonderful feeling. I was so lucky working with the staff at Coastwide Child and Family Services. They made me so welcome.”
