Are you a great team or want to find ways to be a better one? Is there a cause one or both of you care strongly about? Do you enjoy giving back to the community? Couples who spend quality time doing something meaningful together are likely to find a sense of purpose and develop a new shared interest.
Finding quality time with your sweetie can often be a challenge for those with commitments and busy schedules. So when it comes to doing an activity that’s rewarding and fun, consider volunteering together!
Volunteering gives couples fresh things to talk about and helps them create shared memories and make twice the impact while helping others! How’s that for a win? We’d love to introduce you to two amazing volunteer couples that deliver Meals-on-Wheels. We hope that you’re encouraged by these impactful volunteer duos and invite you to pair up with a friend, spouse, partner, or bestie and make a difference today. Reach out to the volunteer team to get started!
Pat and Tom Miller from West Jefferson, Ohio
“Volunteering together gives us a common activity as well as a second pair of eyes and ears while talking to our Meals-on-Wheels recipients. We like doing things together because it is easier with two people while routing and distributing meals.
We like meeting new people and getting to know them visit by visit. The smiles on their faces are very rewarding to us. The service LifeCare Alliance provides is essential to the well-being of the people we visit. We feel grateful to be able to give back to the community.”
Gene and Terry Martini from Ashley, Ohio
“We volunteer together in Marion, Ohio because it gives us an activity we can share. I think our favorite part of volunteering is that we get to serve others that are in need of help, it could be us someday and we hope there will be volunteers to help us. We encourage everyone who is able to volunteer at something, it is very rewarding to see so many people so happy when we deliver the meals, it’s not much, but it helps.”
