Newark Woman Named Nonprofit's Volunteer of Month
Newark resident Lu Ann Sorenson has been awarded September Volunteer of the Month for Fremont-based SAVE.
From Safe Alternatives to Violent Environments (SAVE):
Lu Ann Sorensen has been a SAVE office volunteer since August 2009. She was referred to SAVE by Compassion Network, and we will be eternally grateful to them for sending her our way. Lu Ann has assisted our data entry team and finance manager, filled in for our receptionist, and helped with various office duties. Whether coming in regularly or on-call, she always arrives with a smile on her face and such a cheerful attitude that we all can’t help but smile along with her.
Most recently, Lu Ann came in daily for almost two weeks while our receptionist was on vacation. This was a tremendous help, ensuring that anyone calling SAVE or dropping by could be helped immediately. Thank you, Lu Ann, for your years of dedicated service to SAVE.
