Which volunteer efforts do you support and why?

I volunteered in the emergency room at a hospital when I was stationed in Hawaii. Every Friday after work I would go from 6pm to midnight. It was very rewarding and a great experience. I have done some other volunteering but nothing that impacted me the same way.

I volunteer my time at my local church as an usher for 4 hours each Sunday. It is a ministry for me to serve people, welcome everyone and help them find loved ones or a seat or both, greet people who are afraid, angry or embarrassed and let the know they are welcome. I have been doing this for 30 years or so.
I used to volunteer as a teacher of young children at church. Some of them were from broken homes and did not have responsible adults nearby. I tried to provide them with a secure space while I demonstrated the love of God to each of them while I served in the children's ministry. I tried to make it as fun as I could for the 2 and 3 year olds. I Had to give this ministry up because of health conditions. The 2 and 3 year olds are now in their 20s and it has been great to watch them grow up.
I have served as a political precinct captain for many election cycles. I do my best to welcome everybody to the polls regardless of who they are voting for. I am a conservative and I have worked closely with my liberal counterpart to reduce tensions.

I have been spending a lot of my time volunteering at the base airmens attic. I wasn't really sure what I was doing when I first started, and was hesitant about it, but after several months now have to say that I actually enjoy it.
