Volunteering has a meaningful, positive impact on your community. But did you know that volunteering also benefits you personally? Beyond the intangible benefits such as pride and accomplishment, there is also a strong relationship between volunteering and health. Studies have shown that those who volunteer have lower mortality rates, greater functional ability, and lower rates of depression later in life.

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. said, “Everybody can be great, because everybody can serve.”  So consider volunteering!  Not only will it strengthen your community and improve lives; it may even transform your own.
