Nutmeg is Thankful
\nit could continue to Give Rides-Volunteers are the “Heart of this Program”<\/em><\/strong><\/span><\/h1>\n\n\n\n
Recently we were interviewed by Marc Warnock on his program “Focus” on Cox in Enfield.\u00a0 His last questions was “What is the one thing that you are most thankful for during this crisis?”.<\/p>\n

To us it is that we had the structure to be able to continue to provide rides.\u00a0 We have always had a mix of staff and volunteer drivers.\u00a0 When the volunteers had to isolate we were able to continue with staff.<\/p>\n

Normally we give 700 rides a month but in April that dropped to 182.\u00a0 We were able to give every ride that was requested.\u00a0 In June some volunteers returned and our rides are now running at 500 a month.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n\n\n\n
This week we were able to help a family in Windsor in a way that was unique.\u00a0 On Monday we received a call at 7 AM.\u00a0 Amberwoods in Farmington had moved her husband into Hospice.\u00a0 At 8 AM we picked her up and she visited until noon.<\/span><\/p>\n

A second ride was scheduled for Wednesday but sadly her husband passed overnight. That afternoon we took her to Carmon Funeral Home to make arrangements.<\/p>\n

We are family.\u00a0 Your loss is our loss, your celebration is ours!<\/p>\n

Please listen to Marc’s interview by clicking on the link below.\u00a0 It is 12 minutes and we hope that you will learn more about our program.<\/p>\n
