VOLUNTEER SPOTLIGHT
|
Sam and Bobbie
Sprout have been volunteering with Deliver the Dream since the very beginning of
DTD retreat weekends! The DTD power couple lives in the Jacksonville area and has
traveled to almost all of our retreat locations. Sam and Bobbie are loved by SO
many, but most of all by the kids on retreats! Sam is quick to drive a tractor
out late at night to take kids shining for deer, and Bobbie has a natural knack
for calming screaming babies! Sam and Bobbie are outstanding volunteers and
have no doubt, helped shape the DTD program into what it is today! Their giving
spirits can only be matched by their loving hearts and we are proud to have them
on our team!
