I volunteer because…….. "I can!" "I want to make a difference in my children's lives and in the community". "I care about the quality of education that our children receive." "I believe that parents know their children best and they have much to contribute." "I care about children." "The home and school association/council is a wonderful organization" "I love my kids and am very interested in what they are doing in school". "I want to have a voice and to be heard". "If I can make any kind of a difference and make things better in any way, then all of the hours of volunteering are worth it!" "I feel that the work I do is important and valuable" "Because of the great people I meet." "It gives me a sense of achievement". "I want to help out in my school". "It's another way to get an education." "Because volunteers are great people with interesting lives and stories." "I can set the hours!" "I acquire a sense of fulfillment". "I am willing to follow through with action after I make recommendations." "I feel it is important to help." "Because parents need an avenue for input and feedback in the school system." "So I will know what is going on." "I like the challenge." "I have the time to give." "It's fun!" "It improves the school life of my child." "It gives me a chance to exercise my brain!" "I enjoy the excitement of the challenge, the new people I meet, and the opportunities that I encounter." "There is never a dull moment!" "I can see how someone's effort makes a difference in the life of a child or an adult." "To learn new skills and meet new people." "To learn more about the education system by serving on the different committees" "To try to make the parents voice heard." "I do not assume that when I send my children out the door in the morning that they will get an education, I volunteer in their school to ensure that they get one!" |
