This Volunteer Month, AHC is celebrating the nearly 350 individuals and groups who generously contribute their time and talents annually through our education and social services programs. Volunteers work directly with youth through our multi-tiered education program; provide invaluable helping hands during community activities; and, as AHC residents, regularly help their neighbors.
As part of Volunteer Month, MonteVerde Apartments celebrated a committed group of residents who jumped into action to help support residents during the pandemic and beyond. They delivered meals to residents’ doors, helped with monthly food distributions, checked on frail and elderly neighbors, assisted with vaccine clinics, and basically pitched in whenever anything was needed. Many were already long-time volunteers at the property and boosted their efforts as needs grew during the pandemic.
AHC Inc.’s Board of Directors is pleased to announce that Paul Bernard has been unanimously selected as the organization’s new President/Chief Executive Officer (CEO). He will join AHC in his new role on April 4.
