MRC News
July 4, 2026
A challenging year for individuals, for families, for friends, for each community and for the country. More than ever the little things count. From a text that says thank you or you are welcome for a small favor to offering a ride even though it may disrupt your day some. Volunteers know how much these concrete actions count when they see the tears and smiles; When they see someone finally relax to sleep; and when hope is finally seen through the mist of tragedy. When you volunteer, magically you find time and your compassion makes a difference not for just one day but for a lifetime. I experienced that personally and it still touches my heart that someone was willing to make time for someone they didn’t know. judie
