“Volunteering is today a way of life. It starts as early in our childhood when we start selling Girl Guide Cookies, or selling Chocolate Bars for school. Then we volunteer to wash a neighbours cars and then we start school and start to volunteer with other kids who have problems reading or writing. When we start High School we then have to complete 40 volunteer hours to graduate. From there we start to work, and they start holding fund raisers, and before you know it, not only did you complete you 40 hours for school but you now have 40+ years to add”
