This month we met at the Sweet Frog in Charlotte Hall for a sweet treat and some community service fun! We continue our partnership with Sending Smiles, a local charity that sends postcards to sick and injured children across the country! To date, they have distributed over 30,000 postcards to cheer up these sweet children! This is our third year partnering with them!
Anna, 20, from Germany, is in her second year as an au pair in Dunkirk, MD. She regularly volunteers her time to support the local volunteer rescue squad. Anna spent many hours training to prepare her to ride in a rescue squad as a support person. Her community service is quite valuable, as the Southern Maryland region is almost exclusively volunteer staffed for fire and rescue. Anna also volunteers in other ways to support the department, such as community events, fundraisers and general support. Anna’s volunteer service has provided her the opportunity to gain new skills, help others and build friendships with American citizens from teens to seniors!
