Volunteer Power
It has been over six months since I started this blog (see the date stamps on the previous posts). I could claim that it is because my life is so hectic that I didn't get to it sooner. That would not be true. The truth is that Self-Help operates with and depends upon the help of volunteers. They are the ones that carry much of the work load. That's one reason Self-Help has the impact of an organization twice its size. Our Board of Directors, for example, serve without compensation -- an almost unheard of practice. They also pay their travel when they visit our projects in Ghana and Nicaragua. And many of our fund raising events simply would not happen without volunteers. And that includes one skilled volunteer who knows how to connect a blog to our web site. Thanks to all who serve.
