Every Moment Matters: A heartfelt thank you to our volunteers

April 14, 2024

During National Volunteer Week, April 14 to 20, we want to take a moment to recognize every Wellspring volunteer and the contribution they’re making. This year’s volunteer week theme is “Every Moment Matters” – which is something that those navigating the challenges of cancer know all too well. At Wellspring, our dedicated volunteers understand this truth, often having experienced cancer themselves.

To our volunteers, we want to say a heartfelt, “Thank you.” Your presence in the lives of individuals facing cancer is more than just assistance; it’s a beacon of hope which offers compassion, strength, and understanding.

From offering a listening ear to providing vital administrative support, your acts of kindness transform ordinary moments into important support and cherished memories.

In the words of one member:

“I wanted to send a SINCERE THANKS to all the volunteers at Wellspring! I am so grateful for the Wellspring organization and both the staff and volunteers who make it run so smoothly.”

~ Sarah, member

Volunteers are at the heart of Wellspring. Thank you for making a difference, and for helping people live better with cancer.

  4. I want to thank the volunteers whom I have met during my time with Wellspring. They all inspire me and have shown me the value of the volunteer role. It is a serious and important commitment to others, for those who are stricken by cancer and those who support their journey.

    Therefore, I would also like to thank the Staff and Leadership who enable volunteers to give back. It is one of the most rewarding things: to repay in a way that has meaning.
