Part of what makes our Crown Center community special is the people who volunteer with kindness, generosity and the genuine care they bring each time they show up. We have over 90 regular volunteers who give their time working at our welcome desk, packing and delivering meals with our Meals on Wheels program, leading a cooking class, serve on our board or directors, sharing a smile, or simply taking the time to connect.
Here are a few photos from our recent volunteer recognition event, where board members, community volunteers and resident volunteers were recognized for their hard work and dedication.
