I love our veterans and that is where a good deal of my volunteering is. I help with dinners and also do Buddy Poppy drives and for those who do not know what a Buddy Poppy is they are little flowers that are given out and people make a donation. That money goes to our Unmet needs for the veterans and can go anywhere from the young men and women coming home and need assistance with their bills to the ones in hospitals. I also am part of the VFWLA in my area and these women help with our veterans and also we bring in money to help with cancer research.
I also volunteer at my local Civic Theatre. I use to love being a actress before kids but now I help with everything from putting up/tearing down sets to seating and the food stand.
I also do work full time and still have one kid at home. I guess I am someone who likes to keep busy and be a part of the community. Plus I love people and making friends.
