"You have never really lived until you have done something for someone who can never repay you."

I would love to do something for someone who can never repay me. I want to be able to make that much of an impact where I can allow them the chance to believe that there is faith in humanity and there will always be a helping hand when they least expect it. :)

"Work for a cause, not for applause. Life life to express, not to impress."

One thing I love about volunteering is knowing that I've done something to help another person or community. Whether it's helping students in Ecuador with their English pronunciation skills or organizing a food pantry off of Times Square, being able to put a smile on just one person's face makes volunteering worthwhile.

"We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give."

Life is not worthwhile unless we contribute and give back to the community. We can take as much as we want but it's fleeting happiness until we actually do something for someone else that makes their life a little better and a little easier.
