According to a well-known proverb, "Service is the rent we pay for the privilege of living on this Earth." For the past almost eight years, I have volunteered as a scout and guide. The following are the changes I've noticed in myself over this time: 1. Since joining the organisation, I have been more calm. because of how aggressive and angry I was as a child. 2. I gained confidence since it makes you feel good when people compliment your work. 3. Performing the task consistently over an extended length of time develops discipline, which is beneficial in life. 4. The more you help others, the happier and more fulfilled you feel. 5. You acquire a leadership quality in your life when you operate with a team. #therohansamnani #volunteer #lesssons

Veteran Housing Corp says that IF YOU ARE NOT PART OF A PERMANENT AND LASTING SOLUTION TO THE AFFORDABLE HOUSING CRISIS AND HOMELESSNESS, YOU ARE THE PROBLEM! THE AFFORDABLE HOUSING INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX IS BROKEN AND NOT WORKING FOR AMERICAN TAXPAYERS Veteran Housing Corp would ask every TAXPAYER to demand and get answers from their elected and appointed government officials the below questions as they relate to any affordable, workforce, or supportive housing project in your community! 1. How much local, state, and federal funding, tax credits, or other government benefits or incentives did the project receive? 2. What is the affordability period for each project? Is the affordability period permanent and in perpetuity? 3. What guarantees exist have your local, state, and federal government officials obtained in writing that rents will not go up or that tenants will not be displaced or evicted after the "affordability period expires? Every local, state, and federal housing authority and affordable or workforce housing stakeholder should adopt the State of Vermont's "permanent affordability" policy as a model for all future government funded or subsidized housing projects or developments, no exceptions! https://lnkd.in/eFEUC8c8 Additionally, local, state and federal housing agencies should look to the Helsinki, FINLAND MODEL of ending homelessness by providing affordable housing for all 'It’s a miracle': Helsinki's radical solution to homelessness https://lnkd.in/er9HZSQU Even the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development AGREES THAT adopting FINLAND'S MODEL OF ERADICATING HOMELESSNESS may be of great value to resolving the affordable housing and homelessness crises in America https://lnkd.in/gkSZWYRU

Customer Marketing Leader | Amplifying the voice of the customer and empowering growth through advocacy and engagement
🎉 I am thrilled to share that I’ve been appointed to the cultural council for North Attleboro, a local chapter of the Massachusetts Cultural Council! (I’m talking “raise your right hand”, three-year term, official). 🙋♀️ This is: -Voluntary -Unpaid -Going to consume a portion of my already busy schedule So why am I thrilled? Because I’m passionate about community engagement and when asked why I applied for the position, my simple answer was, “We could do better”. 💪 As a marketing professional, I’m naturally inclined to observe interactions and identify areas of opportunity. And it’s really hard to keep good ideas to myself. 😏 Having a mindset of “if it doesn’t exist, make it happen” has given me tremendous leadership and growth opportunities, from establishing professional networking groups to getting involved with charity organizations. Usually, I’m “making it happen” for the first time with little to no experience, but I am confident I can make a difference. And the organizations that bring me onboard agree. 🎨🤝 🔬 Culture works through the arts, humanities, and sciences to enrich communities, grow the economy, increase accessibility, and foster individual creativity. Here’s your reminder to learn continuously, be confident, and do good things. #communityengagement #volunteering #dogoodfeelgood #leadership

This quote underscores the importance of loyalty and solidarity among individuals, emphasizing the bond of brotherhood. The call to "come, brother, stand by them" suggests a rallying cry for unity and support, encouraging individuals to stand together in times of need. The plea "don't forget, above all people are true" conveys the notion that amidst challenges and adversities, true and steadfast companionship is paramount. The phrase "not above him" adds a nuanced perspective, reminding us that no one should be elevated or considered superior within the group. It implies a horizontal equality, emphasizing the shared humanity and equality among individuals. In essence, the quote encourages a collective spirit, urging individuals to prioritize authenticity and unity over any perceived hierarchy. It celebrates the strength found in genuine connections, suggesting that true camaraderie prevails when individuals stand shoulder to shoulder, supporting each other without placing one above the rest. #HumanityPerth #FundraisingForChange #SupportingHumanity #PhilanthropyPerth #CommunityEngagement #ImpactfulGiving #HumanitarianEfforts #GiveBackPerth #EmpowerThroughGiving #DonateForChange #CommunityBuilding #HumanityInAction #PerthCharity #CaringForOthers #SupportLocalCauses
