(n.) That moment when you forget you're volunteering to help change lives, because it's changing yours.
"Volunteers are just ordinary people with extraordinary hearts. They offer the gift of their time to teach, to listen, to help, to inspire, to build, to grow, to learn. They expect no pay, yet the value of their work knows no limit. They've known the unexpected joy of a simple hug. They've planted tiny seeds of love in countless lives. Volunteers are just ordinary people who reach out and take a hand, and together make a difference that lasts a lifetime."
~ Kimberly Rinehart
“Volunteering is the ultimate exercise in democracy. You vote in elections once a year, but when you volunteer, you vote every day about the kind of community you want to live in”.

The impact
We can tackle the issues of tomorrow -
issues of addiction, hunger, homelessness, and other basic
needs within our society - together, and today.
The far reaching impact of this vision creates
unity, compassion, and a greater understanding of circumstances beyond our own.
Few people, especially those who are my age, realize the level of self-growth and individual
development that comes with volunteering.
