Reading to 3 yr old children once a week is so rewarding. I know I am helping them, but I get so much joy in return. Also, I volunteer at auxiliary of local fire house. Working with others on fundraisers is not only helping the fire house, but it's a great way to get acquainted with locals in the community.
