Volunteering means giving of yourself in time and effort towards a cause. Our volunteer spotlight this week is Tom V. Tom has been volunteering at Lily Pads for approximately 1 year. He spends 8 hours a week in our Men's Department pricing and organizing clothing. We asked Tom what his favorite thing is about volunteering here, he said, "working with the friendly and helpful people." Thank you Tom. We appreciate you and your efforts.

Good morning again! Thank you for your quick responses to my earlier post. We have had 2 large donations of milk within an hour of my post so I am asking our donors to wait at least 2 weeks to donate milk as we do everything possible not waste any donation. Thank you again for your generosity.
