On Saturday, August 28th a group of forty-four students and community partners gathered at Tropical Park to volunteer at CHARLEE’s Annual Summer Picnic. This event would not have been possible without the dedication and generosity of these volunteers. Serving as game supervisors, frosty servers, and face painters Wendy’s, BankAtlantic, and University of Miami’s Orientation Outreach Volunteer group really made it possible for the entire CHARLEE Family to have a wonderful day together.
Volunteers at CHARLEE serve in a wide variety of capacities but this weekend they were really able to let loose and enjoy a hands on day with the children and families. It was evident to the staff, families, and friends that these volunteers were not there because they had to be, but because they genuinely wanted to. The CHARLEE children really benefit from these friendly interactions.
CHARLEE would like to recognize these forty-four individuals that selflessly dedicated their Saturday to ensuring that each summer picnic attendee had an amazing day! To receive all this unsolicited support is really something special and we can’t thank you enough! The event would not have been possible without the dedication and generosity from you all!
