VOLUNTEERING – The more we give the more we get, Helping others can reduce your stress levels and help your mental and physical health. Great friendships have been made by volunteering,meeting people from all walks of life, in very varied circumstances. It can increase your confidence and happiness. You have the opportunity to make an impact and change lives, you can help women to become more self sustaining, you can inspire, give hope, it creates priceless memories and helps many people. It’s an opportunity to give back, Volunteering is generally an activity where an individual or a group provides a well needed service, but it can work both ways, if you are a natural volunteer, and have always done something towards helping others, or you could be at a point in your life, where maybe you just don’t know what to do with yourself, age is of no importance here, and no matter what your previous profession may of been, it could be continued if that is what you want or you could go in a totaly different direction. Many people do not realise that to do Volunteer work, the amount of possibilities are enormous, volunteers are needed in all walks of life and professions.

It can be with people, animals, heritage, organic farms,charities, orphanage,wildlife, ecological to name just a few, it can even be overseas if you enjoy travel and maybe even a little adventure, you are needed and you could contribute toward making the world a better place. 

Maybe you could create a new life for yourself and certainly that of another, remember the golden rule, if you are interested in being a volunteer, don’t just think about it, act, join in within your local community or if you are more adventurous spread your wings and fly

  3. I think we get back so much more when we volunteer than what we give. No time for self pity or depression. Many lifetime friends are made in the process.
