5 Overall Experience   
an expirience worth a lifetime, changing a life one child at a time

I am still volunteering on the Pediatric floor, and helping out with the Child Life team. It has so far been a phenomenal expirience and I have only been there for just under a month. The smiles from the kids are able to change your outlook at life forever. I would recommend this volunteer opportunity for everyone, it can really show you something. I will never forget this decision. posted on August 8, 2007
