It's exhausting work, although I love it. I cut down my shifts from one a week to one every other week, because your shift does not end when you put down the phone. These women usually need a lot of follow-up help as well. This follow-up time was cutting into my day job. But I love it, even though it's exhausting and emotionally trying.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-948989023630552062.post-53516181532240884502009-02-05T18:49:00.000-05:002009-02-05T18:49:00.000-05:00Volunteering is food for the soul - having a serva...Volunteering is food for the soul - having a servant's heart gives so much in return, to you and those that you are helping.<BR/><BR/>Even when you don't think you can make time to volunteer, you always can by investing your time on worthy causes. <BR/><BR/>For instance, I volunteer for Stop Child Trafficking Now, an organization that funds a special operatives team trained to track, build cases against, and bring to justice the predators victimizing children worldwide. They ask each of their volunteers to spread awareness on modern-day slavery and fundraise money for their nation-wide walk-a-thon in September.<BR/><BR/>I have met so many people who are offering up their talents, using their resources, and spreading awareness, helping SCTNow's goal to end child exploitation.<BR/><BR/>Look no further and volunteer here: you will be saving a child. www.sctnow.org/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
