Thornwell Volunteer Spotlight: Hailey, Anna, and Kinsey

All this week, we are celebrating Thornwell’s amazing volunteers! In the past year, 273 volunteers gave more than 1250 hours to Thornwell, bringing dedication, enthusiasm, and love to all they do! From organizing our donations closet to building playgrounds, to supporting foster families and ensuring the success of our inaugural fall festival and corn maze, we believe that volunteers are the lifeblood of who we are.

Today, we are excited to feature Presbyterian College students, Hailey Grocholski, Anna Hewitt, and Kinsey Bailey. They are passionate volunteers with our Strengthening Families program and we are honored they spent their time serving alongside us!

Tell us about your role and how long you’ve volunteered.

Recently, we have been helping with the Strengthening Families Program. During this time we have helped plate and serve food, set up and clean up the area, decorate, and any other tasks we can help with!
