Kids feeding kids has been a cornerstone of Harvest Compassion Center’s vision since we first opened our doors over 15 years ago. Today, we are thrilled to introduce May’s HCC Volunteers of the Month: Grayson and Cruz! These dedicated brothers have been serving other kids at HCC Maryvale since 2021.

Grayson, who attends a hybrid school, and Cruz, who is homeschooled by his parents, both have flexible schedules that allow them to devote meaningful time to volunteering in their community. Over the past three and a half years, Grayson and Cruz have faithfully served in every area of the center, from shopping for food and clothing with our clients, to carrying out groceries, and handling behind-the-scenes tasks, like cleaning and stocking.

When asked what they love most about volunteering at HCC, both brothers shared, “The best part is seeing how happy the clients are when they are shopping.”

HCC Volunteer Coordinator, Adrie Olson, added, “Cruz and Grayson have done it all with smiles on their faces. With their incredible work ethic and positive attitudes, they could be running one of our centers someday!”

Grayson and Cruz, thank you for serving kids in need and for reminding us all that no matter your age, you can make a BIG impact in your community. We are so grateful for your hearts, your service, and your example!
