Have you ever volunteered for a community service project? If not, is it because the idea seems a little intimidating? Or too much work to coordinate? Or you just don’t know how to get involved with the right project? Oooeee, can I relate!

Before I joined the One for All team, I had never really tried my hand at volunteer people-helping. I didn’t know who to talk to, how to get involved, or what I was supposed to do after I joined a project. Plus, I was a little touch-and-go about the idea of sacrificing my free time to work more.

Don’t worry, this anecdote has a heartwarming twist! (Lol, I wouldn’t let you down this late in the game…er, blog). Volunteering is a big part of my life now, and I love it. Plus these days, a big part of my job involves helping non-profits and co-workers coordinate projects around our big, wild State. It’s a blast, and at the end of day, I feel like I really helped people – like I’m living One for All.

I’m jibber-jabbering about this because I want to invite you to join a project. Sure, I’ve mentioned our One for All event calendar before, and sure, you’ve heard me talk about different projects the One for All team is doing – but today I’m personally inviting YOU to come volunteer with me! What sort of project would you like to do? I’ll be your volunteer buddy so you’re not alone at your first event. December projects are popping up on the events calendar, so keep an eye out and let me know what you want to do.

Personal suggestion: The Talkeetna Bachelor Society is raising funds for Women and Children in Crisis this weekend with a Wilderness Woman Contest and Bachelor Auction. This sounds AWESOME!
