Volunteering

I like to share with you what kind of projects I volunteer time and energy to. They provide me with a chance to return some of the gifts I received in life through meeting wonderful people and having learned a lesson or two. Why?

Making this world a better place

  • "To laugh often and much
  • To win respect of intelligent people and the affection of children
  • To earn the appreciation of honest critics and endure the betrayal of false friends
  • To appreciate beauty
  • To find the best in others
  • To leave the world a bit better, whether by a healthy child, a garden patch or a redeemed social condition
  • To know even one life has breathed easier because you have lived
  • This is to have succeeded!" as Ralph Waldo Emerson said so beautifully.

Supported initatives

Something sure transformed!

If you know what this is, let me know!
