Diane Boelens
Diane Boelens has been named “Volunteer of the Month” at the Geneseo-Atkinson Food Pantry. She has been volunteering for one year at the food pantry, where she assists guests who are shopping for food, and where she helps sort donations in the clothing room.
She has been married to husband Ken for 43 years and the couple has two sons, Cody and Dalton.
Boelens said she enjoys reading, gardening, volunteering locally and internationally, traveling and Jazzercise. She said the best thing about volunteering at the food pantry is spending time with like-minded people, those willing to help our local community. She said the volunteers and staff are willing to support the guests with respect, caring and understanding.
Nicole Freadhoff, assistant director at the Food Pantry, said, “Thank you for serving those in need, Diane!”
