"I volunteer because I know that I can help make a difference in the lives of others. There's no better feeling than knowing you made someone's day a little brighter or gave someone a reason to smile."

Carrie Lewis
Foundation Promotions Specialist
"I volunteer because it allows me to share my passion of "People Helping People". It is not about recognition; it is about making a difference."

Kim Cribb
Liaison, Employee Relief Fund
"I volunteer because I want to teach my kids about the importance of doing good for others... that building a community you want to live in only happens when you use your time and talents to give back."

Paige Turner
Foundation, Giving Coordinator
"I volunteer because it is FUN! I love supporting MN Hospitals because the events are fun, relationships are built, and lives are saved. It isn't a "have to"; it is a "get to" for me!

Amy Alderman
Liaison, Children’s Miracle Network
"I volunteer to give back to the community and to help those who are less fortunate. I also include my nephew in volunteering as much as possible to show him how important it is to get involved and give back."

Roxanne Tanguay
Liaison, Lowcountry Food Bank
"I volunteer because it's a great opportunity to be involved in my community and to give back."
