April is National Volunteer Appreciation Month

Posted on April 1, 2025 by Groton

Across the Nation volunteers are being celebrated in April, at Thrive 55+ we celebrate our volunteers everyday!

***VOLUNTEERS MAKE WAVES***

“Thank you for the incredible contributions you make to Thrive55. Your dedication, kindness, and hard work create a welcoming and vibrant community, making this a truly special place for everyone. We are so grateful for all that you do.” Mark Barry, Director of Parks and Recreation

“To all our volunteers, I never get tired of hearing of all the wonderful things you do for the center. Your ownership in volunteering and keeping the center going truly has us thriving!” Mary Jo Riley, Thrive 55+ Center Supervisor

Did you know that the Thrive 55+ volunteers gave a total of 10,613 hours in 2024?!

Thrive 55+ currently has 240 volunteers and 14 self-led volunteer committees. Our volunteers help out in many capacities such as being on committees, special events, tech center, Club 55, cove baristas, ambassadors, community service, gardening, clerical, front desk, special projects, community sewing projects, special events and much more!

“Volunteers don’t get paid, not because they’re worthless, but because they’re priceless” Sherry Anderson
