*Volunteer Spotlight*
Faith has been volunteering at MountainStar Madras for the past two years. She is a fantastic addition to the team there, and the interventionists love working with her!
Amethyst, the Madras program manager had this to share: “Faith is the best out there!! She is a phenomenal volunteer. She is very empathetic, has patience with the children and has a great sense of humor. She loves dancing and interacting with the children and their families. She has such a great heart and never misses a day in class. She drives from Redmond no matter the weather. We can always count on Faith. We love her and wish she continues at our site for many, many years to come!!”
