Does your family volunteer on a regular basis? There is no better way to teach your children about the value of community. For National Volunteer Week, sit down with your family and have each family member nominate a charity they love, such as an animal shelter, a food bank, or a homeless center. What volunteers do you know that volunteer at your work, charity or church? Take a moment to send them an e-card or email to thank them for their devoted unselfish work that helps so many. Also you can have your family vote on a place to volunteer. Your family can rotate each organization once a month.
