There’s no better way to be part of your community than through volunteering! This month, we’re diving into the well-known phenomenon of volunteerism. We see it, we hear about it, but how do we actually get involved and put it into practice?

Giving back to the community not only benefits those you serve, but it also enriches your own life. The personal rewards that come from helping others are priceless. We want to hear from you! Share your experiences with volunteering and help us learn how to make a difference in our own communities.
