Volunteers

IMG_7745

Last Saturday we started our day watching empty water barrels being given away for disaster preparedness (see Ready or not). We spent a while there chatting with a number of the helpers. Many of them had been there since the wee hours of the morning. I don't know this woman's name, but she was one of the volunteers for the day. She was cheerful, greeting everyone with a smile and information to help in case of an emergency. She clearly enjoyed serving.
Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has.
