April 15 - 21 is National Volunteer Week here in Canada
Ask people what they wish they had more of, and most will invariably say, “Time!”
Time to relax. Time to spend with friends and family. Time to enjoy the things in life that really matter.
Given the high value our society places on time, and the fact that time is a limited commodity in our world, it’s very fitting that we take a moment to honour and acknowledge those individuals in our community who give so generously of their time to help others.
Volunteers really do make a BIG difference. They are the glue that binds us together and unites us for the common good. Their efforts are critical to so many of the programs and initiatives that improve lives and make our community such a great place to live.
We at United Way KW rely heavily on the dedicated team of volunteers that comprise our board of directors and committees, help out in our office and at our events. We also have many ambassadors who act on our behalf in their workplace and out in the community.
To all, a sincere thank you for all that you do!
