Make the Most of Your Holidays: Volunteer for a Better Community

As the holidays approach for many of us, we find ourselves at home, and with free time to spare. And we can use this time for good. “Time is money,” they say, and so it is. Time is value and we can now use this free time we have to its full potential. Holidays are not only a time for rest, relaxation and fun. They are also a time for meaningful activities, self-exploration, and giving back to the community. One such way we can do our part is through volunteering. It sounds cliched, like an overused slogan. But it’s true. One person, volunteering for just one hour every week, can become the bright spot in someone, or some animal’s life. Sign up for something— just one activity that can not only aid you in your journey of self-exploration but in bringing a little bit of joy to someone else’s life, and in giving back to our community. I was sceptical too, at first. How much can one person volunteering make an impact? But then I realised it does. And together, with hundreds if not thousands of people volunteering together, we can uplift people and animals with the joy they deserve. Create this win-win situation for yourselves and others, and volunteer today. 

Time is value.
