A Baby’s Breath Briefs
Collegeville Center
By Susan Grant, Director
I joined A Baby’s Breath as a volunteer last
November after finding a posting online on Volunteermatch.org.
After meeting Mary Ann McDonnell and a couple of the
Collegeville volunteers, I quickly realized I’d found a talented, caring and
committed group of people who were dedicated to their mission. Over the past
year, I’ve become an Advocate at the Collegeville Center, attended the
leadership conference in the spring and as of September, have taken on the
Director’s role.
Mary Ann McDonnell, former director, remains a key support
as I’m still learning that role.
We don’t always know how much of a difference we make
unless our clients come right out and tell us. But there are few instances that
stand out to me as clear successes. One is a former client who worked hard to move
beyond her crisis situation and who now has offered to “give back” with her
time as a volunteer.
