The type of support that I've seen in these volunteers is incredible.

The range is everything from just pitching in to transport materials or even food from point A to point B

and to the other side of the spectrum which is putting on gloves and masks grabbing

shovels and pumping out cellars and throwing the mud out of people’s houses, just helping your next door neighbor.

I volunteer for all my friends and family in Schoharie County and

my home residence.I volunteer because I was born and raised here my childhood friends and

family live here and my in-laws lost their farm here.I volunteered to help the community

and it makes me feel like I’m doing good for everyone.I volunteer because this is my

hometown these are my friends, my family people I work with people Iove and it’s an

act of kindness.I love to volunteer for my community because I love my community and the

people in it.I donated to the Schoharie flood victims my play-doo and all my race tracks and

toys that I had and I don’t use anymore and I donated all my clothes that are too small.

I volunteer because it’ one way I can look after folks in the community who are less fortunate

than myself. I get to go home tonight and sleep in my own bed and these folks have to

take care of this for the rest of their lives. Hi my name is Winter, I’m a Alisa, I’m Ileana,

I’m Maddy, I’m Megan and I’m Jamie and we volunteered because this is just our community

everyone is family and we all grew up here and so this is what we have to do, it’s just

we love everyone here and we have to rebuild I guess and clean up.I believe the communities

gratitude its heartfelt, uhm... it is beyond question as far out going to all these

volunteers there’s not even words to express how much we appreciate as a community all this

volunteers all these volunteers that are coming and helping us out in our time of

need and I hope in the future I know we are going to need volunteers for the

next four to eight weeks.
