What have you
learned about yourself through volunteering? I
have gained a greater perspective on life. I have learned than no
matter how bad things get, there is always someone else who has it
worse. |
What would you tell
someone who is thinking about volunteering? Circumvent your fears and find
something to do. Everyone can do something. |
