DPU employees who volunteered to work at an event during the past 18 months were invited to a luncheon at the Bon Secours Training Center, April 18 for National Volunteer Month (right). Each table shared what volunteering meant to them personally, what they had learned, or what their favorite event was.
DPU Director April Bingham said, “it really does mean something. Our jobs go far beyond what the public can see.” She said volunteering provided a sense of purpose and community, as well as an opportunity to meet other DPU employees and improve social skills. “Every day is an interview, even when you’re not interviewing. It gets you out of your comfort zone.”
Attendees included Rosa Harris, Kendra Henderson, Alma Gordon, Dexter Anderson, Rick Barden, Antominio Cosby, Patra Brodie, Rodney Munford, Rickie Chavis, Jerrell McKnight, Lisa Smith, Michael Burns, Beverly Bacote, LaRhonda Robinson, Tierra Martin, Monique Williams, Tarmesha Carter, Yolimar Garcia, Shawn Manning, Jonette Meade-Barley and Jamie Queen. Members of the Executive Leadership Team assisted at the buffet table.
