Testimonials
What’s it like to volunteer at Staying Connected?
“I was attracted to Sun City by the advertised ‘Active Adult Community’ concept. What I have come to love about Sun City is that it’s a ‘Caring Community.'”
“By lending a helping hand I not only make my neighbors day a little easier, but I form a connection with them.”
“Through the experience I learned that helping one’s neighbor not only benefits them but also enriches our own lives. It fosters a sense of community, compassion and empathy.”
“I try to volunteer at least once per week and look forward to each assignment, it’s the highlight of my week. The people I meet are fascinating and I love hearing stories about their lives and what brought them to Sun City.”
“I encourage everyone to look out for their neighbors and offer a helping hand. The benefits extend far beyond the immediate act of assistance, It creates a stronger, more caring community for all.”
