Helping Hands is available if you, as an MPWC member or your family member residing with you, are experiencing some kind of emergency such as hospitalization, incapacitation due to surgery, or grief. Upon contact by the member needing assistance, Helping Hands can provide a few meals or other services, i.e., pick up medications at the drugstore if you are not able to drive.

Sunshine Committee - Member Outreach
The Sunshine Committee, chaired by Stephanie Sessions, is available to MPWC members. Should you experience an overnight hospital stay, a member of the committee will visit you and bring flowers to brighten your day once you are home. If you experience a loss, illness or have a procedure not requiring an overnight stay, the committee will send a card to let you know your MPWC family cares about you and is thinking of you.
If you or someone you know meets the above criteria, please feel free to contact Membership Director Diane Lochner at diane.scorpio@gmail.com.
