Getting Involved
Why Volunteerism is Important in West Park
Modern life is busy, and it can sometimes be difficult to feel connected to your community in meaningful ways. If loneliness and social isolation are becoming a problem, it may be time to make a change. Specifically, it may be time to introduce volunteerism into your life.
In a literal sense, the definition of volunteerism is “the act or practice of doing volunteer work in community service.” But volunteerism doesn’t have to be restricted to the action it describes. Volunteerism connotes a mindset or a philosophy. It can also mean an attitude of service or a willingness to give back to your community — and in doing so, to make the world around you a better place.
As it turns out, volunteerism doesn’t just help the organization, population, or community on the receiving end. Volunteering your time or energy can have amazing benefits for you, too.
West Park Kiwanis clubs serves the West park community. Our Kiwanis club members look at the needs of children in our community and decide on projects that will benefit local kids the most.
