We received a beautiful note today from one of our amazing clients. This comes with a special thank you to the YMSL mother/son volunteer group - an outstanding group of people sharing the importance of philanthropy. She said, "Thank you for the beautiful orchid plant and the yummy pumpkin cake! The orchid plants is still blooming as I write this note. 12 weeks and 4 days later! I also want to thank Drive a Senior for the dedicated service to the Austin Community and a special thank you to all of the volunteers for their selfless efforts." 🥰🥰🥰🥰
