Maya Angelou said “I have found that among its other benefits, giving liberates the soul of the giver.”
Giving – giving of ones self through time, energy, knowledge and experience. There are two essential ingredients that make a great volunteer — an attitude to learn and experience new things and a willingness to share one’s experiences and knowledge. Volunteering gives you a lot in return. It is all about the joy of making a difference on the one side, while receiving immense value on the other from the experience of volunteering, meeting people and learning something new.
Oprah Winfrey believes, “The happiness you feel is in direct proportion to the love you give.”
