Volunteer Opportunities at WMSS

by Amena Hajjar

Charles, Cynthia, Melissa and Allison: Volunteers in San Geronimo Valley delivering meals to homebound seniors.

“This volunteer position is much more than delivering meals … it is about offering a happy face to some folks who don’t get out much, saying a kind word and chatting a bit and letting them know you will enjoy seeing them again next week. The meals are secondary.”
–Allison, 5 year HDM Volunteer

Kaitlyn: Volunteer at Stockstill House; owned and operated by West Marin Senior Services providing 24/7 care at Pt. Reyes Station.

“I really liked sitting with the residents at Stockstill House. I enjoyed talking to them, reading and I even liked helping the staff organize the pantry. I felt like I was in a home. I am planning to return to complete my community service hours I need for my high school program and I will tell other high school students it’s a nice feeling to help here.”
–Kaitlyn

Banana aka Lowell Levinger and Paul Knight: Bread & Roses Volunteers at the Community Senior Luncheon

“We have collaborated with WMSS for years, it’s been a wonderful way to provide music and for the local talent to perform. Bread & Roses Presents is a nonprofit organization founded by the late Mimi Fariña in 1974 to bring hope and healing through live music to isolated Bay Area audiences”
–Marian Hubler

WMSS Board Member – Cecelia “Cia” Donahue and Pat Donahue “When my term is over, I am looking forward to participating in the other meaningful things WMSS does.” 

Cia Donahue is nearing the end of her second, 3 year term as a Board Member for West Marin Senior Services. Cia’s commitment is to always look out for her neighbors, especially older adults living in the West Marin community. She is a shining star with a smile to brighten anyone’s day, an inspiration to WMSS, fellow Board members, volunteers and the community at large.
