Recognizing an Antioch volunteer

Monday, 07 March 2011 18:54

Gary began volunteering in Antioch when a friend of his asked him to come and help at the Loaves & Fishes of Contra Costa (LFCC) dining room in August 2008.  He enjoyed the experience, and now he volunteers every day.  He likes to help out at the Loaves and Fishes dining room to give back for what he has been given. Gary is a disabled Vietnam veteran. He lives across the street from the Antioch Loaves and Fishes Dining Room, where other disabled veterans live as well. He also has volunteered at the Pittsburg - Loaves and Fishes / Saint Vincent de Paul Dining Room when additional volunteers are needed. One of his hobbies is building furniture.
