Ah...the good old summer time filled with lazy, sunny days,
ice cold treats, Independence Day celebrations, and get-togethers at the beach.
Another sure indication of summer is our Alive in All Seasons theme of
Volunteerism.
July is the perfect month to honor all of the many
volunteers who contribute thousands of hours of time in service to our
communities. From our four-legged volunteers to those of the two legged variety
we are proud to say we receive more than 10,000 hours of precious time each
year. We simply could not do it without all of your help, and this month we
honor you. We will also be promoting the spirit of volunteerism by volunteering
our time to help others. If you have some spare time on your hands consider
joining us for a volunteer activity or better yet volunteer your time with us,
we’d love to have you. What qualities make a good volunteer? Energy, passion,
flexibility, creativity, reliability, commitment and perhaps most important of
all – integrity.
Volunteerism benefits all parties involved. In addition to
making new friends, volunteering also helps increase your self-confidence,
provides a sense of purpose, combats depression and helps you stay physically
healthy. Helping others also kindles happiness, as the London School of
Economics found the more people volunteered, the happier they were.
In addition to volunteering opportunities, plan to join us
during July for our summer celebrations and share our thanks as we honor those
who Stand In Integrity with us.
