"Volunteerism is both reactive and proactive. It is a response to current events, social problems,
and community
needs that volunteers are often the first to identify. Volunteers can take action before institutions and government
are willing to offer services. As such, volunteers are pioneers and experimenters, unlimited
by the restrictions of tradition, public statutes, need to make a
profit, or availability of initial funds."
Some
people give time, some money, some their skills and connections,
some literally give their life's blood. But everyone has something
to give.
This
site is designed to facillitate coordination between those
wanting to help and those seeking help. It is also hoped that
by using this site the community as a whole will come together
to help themselves as the First Step towards providing
relief to the unfortunate.
