  • Kelly C's Testimony (Volunteer)

    “It has been so great working with the N family. They are so friendly and kind, and their little boy has been such a joy to get to know. I couldn’t be more grateful for this experience, as I truly looked forward to every meeting I had with them. My tasks ranged from cleaning windows to weeding/mulching their backyard, and I could tell that they were appreciative of even the smallest of tasks. Thank you so much for a great pairing as this family was so wonderful to meet!”

  • Natalie, Riley, and Avery's Testimony (NM Service Recipients)

    We have been part of the Normal Moments family for over 3 years. We have been blessed with house cleaning services, been recipients of Thanksgiving and Christmas meals, and have been honored by being adopted at Christmas so my children would feel the magic of Christmas. All of these are absolutely amazing; however, the most impactful, most inspirational, and most meaningful thing to our family is our "Davids" that have graced us with their presence. It is more than these people coming into our house on a regular basis to help with cooking or cleaning. This allows me to spend more time with my kids instead of trying to cook dinner, help them with their homework, play games with my kids, and relax after the kids go to bed instead of cleaning up. These volunteers are part of our family - coming to birthday parties, hanging out on the weekend just to hang out, and being there for each other during life's journey. It's been life changing and such a positive experience for my family. We are truly honored and humbled by being a part of this amazing family and organization.
