Inspire Kids to Volunteer

If you want to teach your kids that its better to give than to receive get them involved in volunteering. The earlier they start the more likely kids will be to develop a lifelong desire to help people.

Volunteering can teach them about working well with others and that everyone's contributions are important. It can even teach older kids job skills. 
Consider your children's ages and abilities and choose activities accordingly. You might want to volunteer as a family, selecting an organization and task that interest everyone.
