On Thursday, April 11th Looking Glass staff and supporters joined other thankful groups in acknowledging and celebrating the wonderful volunteer work being done at organizations around the county. Looking Glass was honored to have had two separate volunteers to celebrate with at the United Way Volunteer of the Year Celebration at Valley River Inn. New Roads instructor Steve Nastasiuk and two representatives from the Kappa Delta Alpha Lambda sorority were both nominated in their respective categories.

Gia Gershon-Friedberg and Rachel Rozenfeld, from Kappa Delta, joined us at the event. Kappa Delta has long supported Station 7 through their annual events and fundraising. Most recently, they completed their “Shamrock N Roll” event which raised almost $9,000 for Station 7.

We are so thankful for these volunteers and all the others that help us in a myriad of ways throughout the year.
