The broadest, and maybe the most meaningful definition of volunteering: Doing more than you have to because you want to, in a cause you consider good.
   --Ivan Scheier

I am a recipient of unconditional love, I am a volunteer
   --Shanterra McBride

The heart of a volunteer is not measured in size, but by the depth of the commitment to make a difference in the lives of others.
   -- DeAnn Hollis

The best way to find yourself, is to lose yourself in the service of others.
   --~Ghandi

It's easy to make a buck. It's a lot tougher to make a difference.
-- Tom Brokaw

Top Ten Reasons to Volunteer

1. When you stay home you get too many telemarketing calls.

2. Your family could use a break from you.

3. You might need help yourself some day.

4. It's hard to win a game of solitaire.

5. Soap operas all sound alike.

6. If you don't go out each day, you get old.

7. Why let your boss have all the fun in life?

8. The car needs a workout.

9. Your mom would be proud of you.

10. Who cares about money?
