When describing her experiences at Clean of Heart, Jane
McManus stressed the blessings she has received since she started volunteering.
Jane is a member of Our Lady of the Hills Church and heard about volunteer opportunities
with Clean of Heart from both her church bulletin and friends who serve at
Clean of Heart. She is at Clean of Heart washing, drying and folding clothes on
the first Wednesday of each month. Jane says “My life has been incredibly
blessed and I knew I needed to give back to others. I really look forward to my
day and try not to miss it… I have never had so many thank-yous or
God-bless-yous and hugs in my life!” One day at Clean of Heart, a client shared
that he had never celebrated his birthday Christmas. Jane and her friends
decided to change this. They now bring 2 dozen cupcakes every month when they
volunteer at Clean of Heart along with personalized birthday cards for anyone
who has a birthday during that month. Jane shares that she gets much out of
this experience each month.

Thanks for volunteering with Catholic Charities, Jane, and for letting clients know that there are people who care for them!
