In this heartwarming and eye-opening episode of Food, Family, and Philanthropy, we sit down with John Sawdon, Outreach Coordinator at The Volen Center, a powerhouse nonprofit supporting seniors across South Florida. From dementia care and adult day programs to intergenerational playdates and 6,000 monthly meals, John gives us a behind-the-scenes look at how one organization is redefining elder care with compassion, connection, and community. You'll hear touching stories, laugh over a shared love for nachos and ribs, and learn how outreach is more than a job—it’s a calling.
Whether you're looking to make a difference, discover hidden local gems, or just love hearing stories that feed the soul, this episode is for you. Plus, don’t miss John’s unforgettable tale about luggage triumphs and why Michael thinks Buc-ees might be the greatest place on Earth. Get ready to laugh, reflect, and maybe even volunteer.
