Volunteer experience by Wiktor Tarasiewicz

Volunteers of America Action Teams worked alongside Home Depot and the Phillies to make a memorable day for the senior citizens at Lindenwold Towers. Students and Home Depot volunteers planted a vegetable garden and flowers and built a bench and gazebo for the residents of Lindenwold Towers to enjoy. Three Phillies players stopped by the worksite. Ryan Howard called out Bingo numbers while Shane Victorino played alongside some of the residents of Lindenwold Towers and Ben Francisco challenged some students to a game of Wii baseball. The volunteers and residents of Lindenwold Towers enjoyed hamburgers and hotdogs cooked by members of the U.S. Air Force for lunch. Volunteers are good people who help other people for free and make the world better without expect payment for work.
