Do you like to volunteer?
Many of us take the time to volunteer for different organizations. Personally, I volunteer for our Girl Scout troop and service unit. I am involved with my daughter and also many girls within the community!
So, do you like to volunteer?

Yes, I enjoy volunteer work! I used to volunteer 3 days a week for the Veteran's Administration Hospital. I now volunteer 2 days a month, drawing blood for the blood bank.

I was a volunteer for the Humane Society and have been a Disaster Action Team member with the Red Cross for 3 years now. I LOVE IT! Most of the work involves local house fires and apartment fires, although I have been deployed to New York for Hurricane Sandy. I encourage anyone and everyone to get involved with the Red Cross - it is a great way to help your community.

I am nice and ask for volunteer help in our girl scout troops. The program does not exist without volunteers and it is a great program for the girls. I also volunteered for 4_H and we ask parents to help us to. There are nice people out there that need volunteer help that do not take advantage of others.

I reply with my honesty….the only help I do to girl scout is buy their candy and give away - I don't eat candy…..and only within my budget allow.I did the favor for many senior need in daily life..but I don't call myself volunteer because I've asked if I can help I do so on my own free will. I also refused some other asked if I would help some unnecessary stuff such as drive them to shopping or dine out? they all young and healthy ? why want help? (just because they have no car?)…..and how many people in this country abuse their elderly? I am sure all of them are grow up spoil from all the their paeans + the volunteer help to get what they want….,? sorry if my answer oftener you it is never my intention to do so. I only tell my own point of view. maybe because I wasn't brought up in this culture of life style….and yes, I have 2 grow up children. when they are young in school, and asked to sell candy for the scout troop…I was not please….pay the whole thing and told them if asked agin quite the group………we pay full price to the school. I disagree the school made children to do something like that. accept my apologize please. I only share some of my though. nothing personal. and is not of business how other people do here also - I don't interfered .
