Youth GREEN DEAL

Volunsesia is that moment when you forget you're volunteering to help
change live, because it's changing yours...

The best way to find yourself is to lose yourself in the service of others.

-Mahatma Gandhi-

Volunteers don't get paid, not because they're worthless, but because they're priceless.

-Sherry Anderson-

Volunteers do not necessarily have the time; they just have the heart.
