5 Overall Experience   
Beautiful place, wonderful people, lots of fun volunteering at Good Sam

The Evangelical Lutheran Good Samaritan Society National Campus volunteer program now has 10 regular volunteers and as the Volunteer Coordinator I've been able to get the program off to a great start and enjoyed every minute of it. The staff are wonderful, very flexible and appreciative of their volunteers. It's not as intimidating as it looks from the outside! posted on September 28, 2006
