I do this also with my parents. I can honestly say that our Veteran's are some of the most amazing people. They would give the shirt off of their backs to help anyone. I was volunteering at the YMCA while I lived in Oregon, I got a free membership for giving three hours of my week to them. I met some of the cutest people while sitting at the front desk and answering questions.

I also do as many charity motorcycle runs as I can fit in during the spring & summer, my favorite being the Cruise for Kids run for the Rochester, MN Ronald McDonald House. Last year we raised over $124,000 in ONE DAY for the kids!
And in the next month or so, I plan to volunteer for Meals on Wheels to help feed the elderly/disabled
