From Our Mail Bag

We love getting mail and hearing stories directly from our volunteers and participants. Here is a story we received from Andy, who has been matched in our Friend 2 Friend community program for the past four years.

 

I met someone through the Friend 2 Friend program who has been very nice to me. He is very understanding and knows where people are coming from. We have a good relationship. He was from a town where I lived for many years. We like doing the same things. He listens to my issues and sometimes gives advice.

I lost my parents and Marty stepped in and up to plate as a mentor and friend. We usually see each other every other week. Marty picks me up at work. I really look forward to our times together.
