Volunteering

Today was an amazing day. I volunteered for 7 hours for the Harvest Gala. The Harvest Gala raises money for patients at Altru. This year they were raising money for their program H.A.R.P. This is a program for patients on renal dialysis. I feel very fortunate that I was able to volunteer for this and this program specifically. Renal dialysis is something that hits close to home and I understand what the patients are going through and the effects it has on not only the person on dialysis but their families as well. I am glad to say that I spent 7 hours volunteering but I am glad to say that I volunteered at an event that was raising money for dialysis patients. This volunteering made me think alot about my dad and how he continues to live his life on dialysis. I really love my dad and I'm glad that I was able to do something that supports people like him on dialysis.
