  Praise for SIMO  
Once again we are extremely grateful to the SIMO volunteers.  The final count on the race was 191 registered runners and walkers; we are definitely thrilled, and could not have done it without your help.
 -- Joy Cordio, Volunteer Coordinator -- May 2010



On behalf of the WARM Center I would like to extend our gratitude for your service at the WARM Hearts Winter Gala.  Once again the volunteers that came to work our event were punctual, efficient friendly and truly a wonderful addition to our event.  WARM was able to raise over $25,000.00 at this year’s event, which in this economy is fantastic.  Your support in our fund raising events directly helps the hungry and homeless in our community and we are grateful for your time.  We look forward to seeing you in May for our 5krun-3k walk.  Sunny spring wishes to you all,
 -- Joy Cordio, Volunteer Coordinator -- March 2010



On behalf of the Board and Staff of Connecting for Children and Families, I want to thank you and your friends at Singles in M’Ocean for volunteering your time in support of the Kings Row Valentine’s Benefit Concert.
With friends like you, CCF will continue to provide emergency basic needs services; offer working families high quality child care; support parents through our home-based parent education program; and help students succeed in school through tutoring and after school enrichments.
Your ongoing support is greatly appreciated. Together, we can make an important difference in the lives of children and families in Woonsocket!
  -- Terese Curtin, MSW, Executive Director -- February 2010



As usual, SIMO was terrific and you can be sure that you'll be hearing from me again.
  -- Sandra Cooney, Director of Fund Development, Connecting for Children & Families -- "Kings Row" -- February 2010



Many, many thanks to you all for your outstanding help this past Saturday. Everywhere at the event were enthusiastic, capable, and indefatigable volunteers, each handling her or his post courteously and professionally. … Each of you went above and beyond what was expected in terms of your engagement with guests, handling of physical challenges, and good cheer in the face of chaos. Again, and quite simply put, thank you.
  -- John Rogers, Office Administrator, Providence Preservation Society -- "Winter Bash" - February 2010



On behalf of the entire agency, I would like to extend a tremendous amount of thanks and appreciation for the donation of your time to our agency at ‘A Catered Affair’ this past Sunday.
Everybody in the office has been talking about what terrific job you all did and what a pleasure it was to have enthusiastic and hardworking adult volunteers to keep everything going smoothly!
We are glad that those who helped seemed to have an enjoyable time as well.
I do hope we can partner again for future events. Many, many thanks!
  -- Robyn M. Buck, Agency Volunteer Coordinator, Visiting Nurse Services of Newport and Bristol Counties -- "A Catered Affair" -- November 2009
