In December 2007, Lynette and I spent a couple hours wrapping gifts for The Forgotten Children's Fund. I had heard about the FCF from the ZTA Alumnae - it was a perfect way to help out during a season of giving.
We had a great time, wrapping gifts and gabbing, it was easy enough. And we were helping out someone else in the process! Lynette then had the idea that it would be fun to do a regular basis. So the Volunteer '08 Project began: we would find a different charity to work with each month, working with a variety of non-profits in the area who needed our help. Just one day a month, but the rewards would be priceless.
We immediately started brainstorming: Ronald McDonald House, Habitat for Humanity, the Humane Society. And we were off and committed!
