“Volunteering is the ultimate exercise in democracy. You vote in elections once a year, but when you volunteer, you vote every day about the kind of community you want to live in.” (Dr. Syed Muhammad Zeeshan Hussain Almashhadi, World Health Organization)

It’s been said that volunteers aren’t paid because they’re worthless but because they’re priceless!  And you’re not only priceless—you are also essential.  Good causes can advance without money, but they can’t advance without volunteers!

Thank you for picking up the phone, pounding the pavement and knocking on those doors, putting pens to those cards, making those calls, stuffing those bags, collecting those funds, throwing those parties, organizing those events, attending those unending meetings, and doing all the other unacknowledged and thankless actions you take to make our voices heard and our votes count in Charlotte County.

Penelope Mayer, Co-Chair, Precinct Coordinating Committee
