Quotes
Here is what members and alumni of the Las
Vegas Youth Volunteers have to say about their experience:
"Volunteering has prepared me for college life in a number of ways. First, I
have been exposed to many different kinds of people, which has helped me to
understand life and made me grateful for everything I have. Volunteering has
helped me be a problem solver and planner, because there were so many
projects I helped plan and follow through with. It also gave me people
skills because I had to contact many different agencies and corporations to
try and receive donations."
Tina, Biology Major, University of Arizona
"The work ethic required to make an impact in your community is very similar
to the one needed to succeed in college. Volunteering helps build
interpersonal skills, develops awareness of your community's needs, and
gives meaning to your actions in what can seem like an ocean of textbooks
and term papers."
Janusz, Economics and Finance Major, University of Illinois
