5 Overall Experience   
A very positive addition to my life.

I became a volunteer at Your ReSource in July of 2006. I had been looking for volunteer work for quite awhile when I found YR. It suited me perfectly, close to home and the CARE program is of special interest to me. I am a stroke survivor and have had to use much of the durable medical equipment that CARE collects, refurbishes and offers for sale. It has been very gratifying to me to be able to help less fortunate people with disabilities and to spend time working on such worthwhile projects. Also though I'm basically an office assistant, I've been able to use some of my graphics knowledge (a hobby of mine) to make signs and other artistic projects. The people who work here have been very friendly and good to work with. Overall the experience of volunteering at Your ReSource has been a very positive addition to my life. posted by Gwent on July 10, 2007
