Please join us Thursday December 10, 2020 when Vicki Coyle, CEO LV MEALS ON WHEELS, will join us. Vicki will update on MOW COVID 19 and functioning in our communities.
What she Likes Most About Her Job: All the people, whether they are staff, volunteers or clients. This agency brings out the best of humanity in the people who serve and are served. I love learning things about our clients. They are artists, veterans, storytellers, steelworkers, homemakers, and more. “Homebound” applies to their physical status, but doesn’t begin to describe their value or contributions they have made to our communities. Supporting volunteers, developing new programs, and working with other agency partners are keys to enhancing the health and well-being of our clients, and I’m proud to be part of the team.
I’d Like You to Know: I am a strong supporter of “buy fresh, buy local.” You will see me regularly at a weekend farmers’ market or shopping in local Lehigh Valley stores or restaurants. I love supporting this community, whether it is through my work or my spending. When I’m not eating, you can find me walking on local trails, knitting, or engaging in dog sports.
See you Thursday!

Many thanks to everyone that contributed toward this year’s Holiday Hope Chests. Our first year attempting this project was a smashing success. Rotary Club of Bethlehem Morning Star pledged to donate 45 gifts. We not only met, but exceeded our goal by 53 percent and donated 69 boxes filled with holiday cheer. Along with 19 members of Rotary, 9 non-members additionally participated.
The gifts were distributed to children across the Lehigh Valley thanks to the hard work of the Volunteer Center of the Lehigh Valley.
I appreciate the help from all participants. Thank you for all the donations of gifts, shoeboxes and gift wrap. A special thank you to Tom and Landa Mohr for wrapping over 30 shoeboxes in record time! I lost count. And another special thank you to John Oesmann and Stan Vasiliadis for opening their homes as storage for the Holiday Hope Chests, as well as being pickup/drop off volunteers. My husband thanks you as well; the boxes were taking over our living room. Happy holidays to all!
