Giving Back to Those who Serve

When a friend suggested volunteering with United Way, Darren Moleton wasn’t sure what to expect. Now, he sees the difference when a community comes together. On Veterans Day, Darren and other volunteers prepared and served meals while talking with veterans and listening to their stories. “As a pilot, I am thankful everyday for the freedom we all have to fly. I was grateful when a volunteer opportunity came up that would allow me to give back and thank veterans for the freedom they’ve given me,” Darren says. He believes that his experience has made him realize how fortunate he is and how important it is to help those who are not. “Volunteering feels good in your heart,” Darren says, “You have time; you can make time to give back.”
