In my life, I lacked a sense of community. Volunteering at the neighborhood-based centers, I experienced being a part of something. The children and the families that I served, in turn gave and shared themselves with me. I highly recommend this organization to those that want to truly connect with another person. I now work at this organization but I was sold on their mission when I began volunteering 6 years ago.
