Inside Look From the President - October 2023

Volunteerism what does this really mean?

Many people describe volunteering as merely an unpaid job wherein you put in the effort and get nothing in return. While you are not compensated for volunteering, it is not true that you get absolutely nothing in return. Volunteering is one of the most challenging and rewarding opportunities you will ever encounter. It gives you the chance to bring a change in the people around you, and in the process, it also changes you. The gratification you can obtain by playing a positive role in someone else’s life is unparalleled.

Above all, volunteering is a way of giving back to the community while also developing essential social skills and gaining valuable experiences. If you wish to make a huge difference in the world around you, you will have to go all for it; you will have to go above and beyond what is asked of you. What makes one a good volunteer is their passion and enthusiasm to bring some kind of positive change through their work.

Please join us at our MPI THCC’s Volunteer Gratitude Event coming up on Thursday, October 26th! In addition, we have a fun education event coming up in the next month that you don’t want to miss. our “Stars, Spurs, Music & More! Inside the HEB Center in Cedar Park" on November 10th!

Sincerely,

Cherry Kay Abel
