Profile of a Volunteer


The volunteer effort I am profiling is the Community Development Club in my community. The person that I have elected to profile works very hard to keep this program going. This program is set up to keep our community safe and assist families that are in need. The individual makes sure that all meetings are set up in a timely manner and make sure everyone that is eligible is being served. I will not use this person name, because they prefer that I did not.

This person is to be commended for starting this club and getting community members to participate. They are currently in the process of working on grants and funding to complete a building to be used to have meetings and activities that will benefit our community. This individual has the natural talent to influence others to work with him to complete task and other benefits for this organization. He devotes a great deal of time and energy in making sure this organization is a success.

This individual has shown me that with lots of hard work and motivating others to join in, that we can accomplish anything. I have seen great strives he has made with collaboration and networking for the success of this organization. My take away message is have goals and follow through and make sure to inspire others to become team members to be successful in advocating for a need.  Our children are our future and we must invest for their growth and development.

  2. Dotsy,
    Thank you for sharing such a great story. I really think you have found someone who wants to do everything they can to improve the community in which they live. I think that this is one of the most important factors of a volunteer.
