How to Give Back to Your Community

All around us are less fortunate people who need our help. You and I are both called to share our gifts with others in need by volunteering some of our time to worthwhile organizations and charities. Those gifts can be our skills, our knowledge or our personal qualities. Even the smallest gesture of kindness on our part means more than you can imagine to someone in need. The following tips will help you to give back to your community: Choose an organization whose work is meaningful to you. Match your role to your unique knowledge, skills and qualities. Start by volunteering for short periods of time that suit your schedule. Get to know others in the organization, take training and bring your enthusiasm to your new role.
