Volunteer warms hearts at Salvation Army during busy holidays
Emma Dover volunteers eight hours daily at the Salvation Army helping clients complete Christmas program applications and coordinating gifts. She recalls a laughter filled moment when a client joked about a dress size, and says the small moments with people make her days memorable. Dover started on November 4 and also handles calls, sorting gifts and distributing aid.
