I get arrested every year and post bail for Muscular Dystrophy....It sends kids to Summer Camp.
Bail is $2,400....It's fun and fulfilling.

I volunteer with the Service to the Armed Forces Division of the Red Cross. I get to continue to work with and help my fellow veterans, active duty military and their families. I also volunteer with Give An Hour (pro bono mental health for military/vets) and COPS Kids (Kids who had a parent die in a line of duty)

I have volunteered many times in my life (and have recognitions hanging on my wall) I tend to be selective, focusing on those serving children. But, now in my twilight years, I donate my time and energy to helping veterans. I was drawn to the cause when I heard of the poor treatment they were receiving at the hands of government agencies.

I used to be very active in my VFW and with The Honor Bell Foundation. At present, I try to volunteer with activities and organizations that will prepare me for my new career upon graduating. Actually, I just did an activity on Thursday where I volunteered to grade/evaluate the essays written as a part of a middle/high school STEM learning competition.

I volunteer a lot! Maybe more than I should. Nonetheless, I have two main areas in which I volunteer. I give my time to my church in the form of Men's Ministry. Otherwise, I put in a lot of time with veterans. My main veteran activities involve Stand Down events. Here in my are, Roseville, CA I am on the county line and am blessed with the opportunity to volunteer in two counties. I have spent time with VFW projects. Anytime an event comes along that is veteran related, such as Vietnam Veteran Day or the Moving Wall, I am sure to get right in there.
