Volunteer and be the Experience

alavenderplace

A volunteer is a person who freely offers to take part in an enterprise or undertake a task (Webster 2019)

As a single parent, one most likely feels as though their existence is a sequence of volunteer adventures. These day-to-day experiences ensure our children become good stewards and productive citizens.

Parents, it is our responsibility to ensure this happens.


Reasons to volunteer

  1. Be the example

  2. Build self confidence

  3. Gain new skills

  4. Regain an appreciation for life

  5. Make new friends and network


I encourage you to sit down with your child(ren), choose a volunteer project, and enjoy the experience together. It allows them to see and feel the value in “giving back.”
