This month we shine the volunteer spotlight on Nancy Hill. Nancy has been a resident of Landis Homes since 2013. She previously volunteered as a greeter at Lancaster General Hospital, and after moving to Landis Homes, she looked for a similar way to volunteer on campus. She quickly volunteered to be a greeter at the Heritage Entrance, and soon began volunteering as a Gift Shop Cashier as well. She also still volunteers for her home church. Nancy is 81 and has been volunteering at Landis Homes for 5½ years. She enjoys helping others and staying busy, and routinely picks up additional volunteering when substitutes are needed. She is a wonderful blessing to the Landis Homes volunteer team!
