Importance of Volunteering

On December 19, 2009 we volunteered at the Penelope House in Mobile, Alabama. For a lot of us, this was a first time volunteer event where we were able to give back to the community. We enjoyed interacting with families and providing a positive fun way of doing things. We helped each family create "Sweet Dream Pillows" in which they were encouraged to write happy memories or thoughts for when they go to sleep. All of the families really loved the hands on interaction.

We look forward to this continued volunteer activity that we can share with the Penelope House. We are learning more and more to be appreciative of what we have and not be envious of others.
