New Years Resolution #1




My first New Years Resolution is centered around volunteering.

I am going to try to volunteer at least once per month, and I challenge you to join me! Why not make 2012 the year of volunteering? The year of doing something.

Typically in the past I have volunteered a ton or not at all. I want to make a steady commitment to giving back, yet one that is attainable.

January will be spent manning phones at my favorite NPR station KCRW.

Ideas for other months include serving a meal to the homeless with my church and volunteering at my favorite kids camp.

These opportunities are open to all, so why not join me and help make 2012 the year of volunteering!

An individual has not started living until he can rise above the narrow confines of his individualistic concerns to the broader concerns of all humanity. - Martin Luther King, Jr.
