Overview

Studies show that people who volunteer just an hour a week enjoy significant health benefits. But where do you begin, what causes should you support, and what would you be good at doing? This collection of personal stories offers a sampler of services available for your choosing. Not only do the stories entertain and touch the heart, they also help readers find satisfying ways to give in line with their own interests. The book begins with the author's unique story of exchanging a past of dysfunctional dieting for the social cause diet. It wraps up with a manageable list of resources and a simple personality test for discovering one's service strengths.
