Bank employees help out at Senior Services' center
SPECIAL TO THE CHRONICLE
1 ~
Senior Services' Elizabeth
and Tab Williams Adult Day
Center was again selected by
BB&T's Lighthouse Project as
a recipient of the services of its
volunteers.
On June 4, volunteers from
BB&T helped Williams Center
participants with games, indoor
gardening activities and assist
ing staff with a variety of tasks,
including organizing office
spaces, creating a Veterans
Garden and sprucing up the
courtyard with a new raised
garden bed and hanging bas
kets. Associates from BB&T
IT Services, Reynolda Road,
Winston-Salem volunteered
120 hours of their time to help.
"We are so blessed," said
Kathy Long, Senior Services'
vice president of Adult Day
Services, who noted that the
Williams Center received some
"extremely helpful items and
facelifts in different areas."
She expressed her appreciation
for BB&T's diligence in plan
ning and coordinating all the
work and to the volunteers for
committing their time.
The Williams Center, a
national award-winning facili
ty, provides creative program
ming and professional, com
passionate care for individuals
suffering from Alzheimer's dis
ease or some other form of
memory impairment.
"We wanted to work with
Senior Services because of the
great work they do in Forsyth
County," said team captain,
Tera Thomas, of BB&T's IT
Services. "We're proud to
team up with them and help in
any way we can."
The BB&T volunteers are
taking part in the company's
sixth annual Lighthouse
Project. The teams each select
ed a project to assist a nonprof
it agency to make a positive
impact on the lives of people in
need. BB&T hopes their
efforts encourage others in the
community to volunteer their
time and support organizations
such as Senior Services.
BB&T associates have
donated more than 265,000
hours in volunteer service and
touched the lives of more than
8 million people since the
inception of the BB&T
Lighthouse Project in 2009.
Associates overwhelmingly
voted to bring back the initia
tive this year.
As an organization that
relies on volunteers to carry out
its mission. Senior Services
applauds BB&T's volunteer
involvement in the community
and invites other members of
the community to follow their
example as they work to
improve the quality of life of
Forsyth County's seniors. To

tion, contact Sharon Kahili at
