Pay it forward

Life's most persistent and urgent question is, 'What are you doing for others?' "
--the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.,
Nobel Peace Prize laureate and civil rights activist



On MLK Day, I hope everyone can take a second and think about this quote. How do you help others? What are you passionate about that you can give to others - knitting blankets for the elderly? Painting with kids in a hospital? Raising money for your favorite charity? We all have something special that we can give to others that will brighten their day...you just have to find it.

VolunteerMatch.org is my favorite way to find volunteer activities. If you only have a few hours, this is a great place to find a one-time opportunity.
