Raindrop Women Association visited Sheltering Arms Senior Services in Houston

Raindrop Women Association didn’t forget to visit senior and elderly in the community as part of the Eid al Adha (Feast of Sacrifice) tradition. On Tuesday, December 8th 2009 a group of RWA volunteers visited the senior and elderly at Sheltering Arms Senior Services in Houston. The elderly, staff and volunteers at the center were presented with hand towels with Turkish embroidery after a brief presentation on the activities and community involvement by Raindrop. The residents at the shelter were extremely delighted and complementary for the presentation and their gifts.  Joan Arnold, the coordinator at the center commented that she was thrilled to host a group of Raindrop women at the shelter and invited us for further activities in the future.
