~ John Wesley

''What I like about volunteering is not only do I make other people feel good, but I make myself feel good too. I've learned that volunteering is not something you are forced or demanded to do, it’s something you do because you want to."

 

~ KeUndreia Moore

Sophomore at Lincoln High School

 

"I have a sense of self-satisfaction and accomplishment whenever I volunteer; I love feeling useful and capable of making a difference in someone's life."

~ Amanda Zidell

Senior at Greenhill School

 

"Doing community service projects make me feel like I make a difference in the world, even if it is just the little world around my city. I like doing it because community service (gives me) a good feeling, like I am doing something for others. I think we definitely make an impact on the world."

Earth Partners class at 

The Winston School
