As Denver experienced its first major snowfall of the season Wednesday, volunteers across the city stepped up to help their neighbors with acts of kindness.

Mark Sorency was one of the volunteers serving up food and smiles at the Denver Rescue Mission on the day of the city’s first impactful snowfall of the season.

“Couldn't wait to get here,” said Sorency. “We were excited to get here this morning because we knew the need was even greater.”

Sorency has been giving back at the Denver Rescue Mission for about 15 years — and finds volunteering on snow days especially fulfilling.

“A lot of these guys will be inside most of the day here, and so you know, if you can go out and hang out with them and chat with them for a while, it makes their day,” he said.
