February 2012 Everyday Angel

Everyday.  For most people, this word likely conjures up things like ordinary, commonplace, or routine. For those of us at Guild Incorporated, we know everyday acts of kindness are extraordinary.  Many of us see strangers reach out to our clients with acts of friendship, housing assistance, employment, etc. These people are Everyday Angels living in our community. Their actions, no matter how ordinary or routine, have a profound effect on those we serve.  Each month we honor one of these Everyday Angels for their contribution to our mission.

 “I’ve photographed so many interesting and kind people,” says Peter, “and I’ve learned so much about mental illness. Guild deals with clients with respect and dignity and genuine interest. I really admire them. Working with Guild has been one of the most rewarding things I’ve done in my career.”
