Volunteering

Volunteering is something that is near and dear to my heart! Our communities where we live depends on volunteers everyday to keep a town going. Take the local soup kitchen. If it wasn't for people coming in to volunteer...our homeless would not have anything to eat. Our Daily Rest in Seneca  houses the homeless for Oconee County. We have our local food bank which in my town is called the Golden Corner Food Bank. Habitat for Humanity builds affordable houses for people. Fire Departments are mostly ran by volunteers. (I myself am inactive Corinth-Shiloh Fire Department Station #3.We have first responders again..(former ER-1, ER-4 board member and special needs). Volunteers at the hospital. We have volunteers who work at a pregnancy center counciling crisis pregnancies and that give out diapers, baby food, and clothes. We have the Sunday School Classes at local churches. Our local Red Cross DAT Team is a great one. CERT (Community Emergency Response Team) is a great one! We have many opportunities to get out there and make a difference in our community. It looks really great on a resume and you get to meet some of the greatest people. Who knows...they might even help you one day!!! Go and volunteer somewhere! You'll be glad you did!
