I was listening to the radio, and I found this podcast called Democracy Vibe Check. It’s about civics and being active in your comunity. Give it a listen!

The episode I was listening to was about how to nurture your community, mainly through volunteering. An interesting few renarks I heard from the episode was that you can volunteer more than time and money. You can also volunteer your talent and experiences to help out a certain group of people. Volunteering is also a great way to get new skills that can be used elsewhere in your career.

This has made me think a little more deeply about how I can volunteer, and ehat strengths I can bring to volunteering. I hope this helps some of you as well, too!

    Nice! Love WABE, great local NPR affliate. Plus they’ve got H Johnson who has gotten me through many a late night drive home via his blues selection.

      NPR is really great! I’d say they are one of the best ways to get local news. They have wuite a lot of informative and interesting programs.

      I also agree with you, they are a lifesaver on long drives.
