Giving Back: Helpful ideas and websites listed below.  We all know that giving back helps everyone involved and Volunteer makes everyone involved feel good.  I came across this article in self magazine where they state how studies show that people who volunteer live longer.  What a wonderful way to help others and yourself.

 

So if you are

crafty: check out :  hatsoffforcancer.org  or Amillionthanks.org

good with kids: MindsMatter.org  or Edibleschoolyard.org

a tech wiz: sparked.com, volunteer at senior and community centers

Sporty: YMCA.net, boys and girls clubs, local schools, aspca.org

Outdoorsy: AmericanHiking.org  Surfrider.org

love food: FMSC.org, Foodpantries.org

 

 

There are so many different ways you can volunteer and help others in your community, the military overseas or some other area that may be dear to  your heart.  So reach out, take a break from your daily routine and add this your life.

 

Best wishes,

I feel as a realtor, we are giving and caring people. I like to give to people in need individually as also some charities as I find them on a case by case basis. I have done charity events with great success.

This was a very nice article. Yes, I believe giving back is the right thing to do and it makes you feel good about yourself. My mother used to say, give to others and it will come back to you ten-fold. Of course, that is not the reason to do it! Thanks for the reminder.

Great information thanks for sharing.  This is one of the many things I enjoy about AR it's how people share information like this.
