SRVS is very proud to announce a new volunteer
partnership with Harrah's Corporation! Members of Harrah's H.E.R.O's,
the casino's corporate community volunteer group, have adopted two of
SRVS' homes. The collaboration began last Christmas and ever since the
volunteers have been generously giving their time and love to six
service recipients from both of the homes. At Christmas, the H.E.R.O's
provided a wonderful holiday party for our individuals. They also
bought them Christmas gifts and a beautiful Christmas tree with
decorations for each home.
Recently the H.E.R.O's held a spruce-up day and BBQ celebration for the
two homes in May. After a full day of hard work, the volunteers had
transformed each of the home's bare yards into a garden of oasis!
Afterwards, everyone got together to enjoy delicious hamburgers and
hotdogs hot off the grill. The weather was perfect for our individuals,
Sam, Mack, Clifton, Rebecca, Elizabeth and Deidre, who
were all smiles as they visited with their special volunteer friends.
SRVS would like to thank all the Harrah's H.E.R.O's for creating
beautiful yards for our individuals to enjoy and a scrumptious meal for
these deserving guys and gals.
One day we hope all our SRVS homes will be adopted by volunteers. It's
a great way to form lasting friendships with individuals who need your
support.
