Gloria Clay, or Glory Bee as she prefers to be called, is a woman full of spunk and humour and she loves sharing her bright personality by being a volunteer driver in Lake Country, taking people to doctor and hospital appointments, or even doing some shopping for them if they can香蕉视频直播檛 do it for themselves.

Glory Bee has lived in Lake Country for 11 years and has been volunteering for the last four years. People who know her, recognize her as someone who loves to help and who hates being late. One day when she went to pick up a new client, she actually was running late and although it made for an awkward first meeting, it all worked out in the end.

Glory Bee likes to encourage everyone to volunteer either formally or informally. 香蕉视频直播滳heck out what you could offer to others in our community: maybe you could help with a few repairs around their place, or do some snow shovelling to clear driveways in the winter. Maybe spend a few hours visiting, playing cards, or reading to someone who can香蕉视频直播檛 see. Or, maybe, like me, you enjoy driving and would love to be able to go for a lovely drive with someone that has an appointment. Find your niche and follow through香蕉视频直播攜ou won香蕉视频直播檛 regret it. Sooner or later, we are all going to need someone to help us. And if we can make friends that way, more power to us all.香蕉视频直播�
