About 20 Monitronics Monitoring Center employees made a trip to the Carr P. Collins Social Service Center in Dallas to serve food and make an important donation: about 500 pieces of knives, forks, and spoons. The donation was the result of a month-long drive at Moni and served a vital need at the Center.
“I’ve heard the phrase ‘fork it over’ before, but this gave it a whole new meaning,” said Nancy Kerley, Volunteer Coordinator, (who also happens to be a Monitronics customer!). “This is one of the best and most practical donations we have ever received–it sure makes eating soup easier!”
Director Mary Jensby explained that the Monitoring Center visited the Salvation Army in February and noticed the shortage of silverware.
“We had to wash forks before we could serve the next group of people–we recognized the shortage,” she said. “Wanting to follow our goal to give back to the community, the Central Station employees and other departments at Monitronics came through for this big donation.”
