    Miriam's Kitchen

    I enjoy getting to know the other volunteers at Miriam's as we work together, and working in the kitchen, there is always plenty of time to talk as we prepare food! Miriam's really builds community not only with the clients but also with the volunteers.

    I love working at the toiletry cart because of all the people I get to interact with! It is always hard to tell someone that we do not have what they need, though. Right now, a lot of people ask for something to help with their allergies, which really makes me realize how little things can really make someone's day significantly better.

    I'm very glad that Miriam's made shifts for working at the toiletry cart during studio time.

    I was just helping with the mail today, and some of the Miriam's Kitchen staff told me how much they appreciate the volunteers' help] with all the daily tasks like mail. Even though I knew they were important duties, it was really a good reminder that the work we do allows the staff to do their jobs more efficiently and spend their time focusing on the clients they work with.

    There were some people volunteering at Miriam's for the time, and I was able to give them a little bit of an orientation! It is nice to be in the position to teach others what I know about working at Miriam's now.

    I always enjoy working in the kitchen, but the cleaning up after dinner can be quite tiring!

    It was nice to work at the toiletry cart and get to talk to guests again! I also organized the supplies in the back a bit so it will be easier to find things in the future.
