Testimonials
Here's what our families have to say.
The staff at The Darling Home for Kids are truly amazing! I’m glad that we are able to return each year to volunteer our time to help them maintain the level of care that the children and families need. Read More
I believe that volunteering is one of the best ways to give back to the community. Sharing my dog with these kids who may not have a dog to love at home…the smiles and giggles we get are nothing like other facilities we visit. All these things cannot be replicated in my day to day life Read More
I believe that if you give children the opportunity to reach their potential, everyone benefits now and in the future. Although my time with the kids is limited, I feel like volunteering at The Darling Home for Kids gives me the opportunity to help kids reach their potential, and they are certainly helping me reach mine.

I was able to develop my skills with kids, in particular kids with special needs. This helped me to get a job as a special needs worker in my town, which I am grateful for. Through this experience I was also able to learn that I have a passion for working with kids and this is something I would like to pursue in my career. I cannot express how thankful I am to have had this once in a lifetime experience. Read More
