Here are some thoughts from Amway people around the world who have shared their #AmwayVolunteers stories:
“Volunteering is an opportunity to give back to my community and change people’s lives. I believe that it is incumbent on us all to give our time and effort to help the less fortunate. I have discovered over the years that I have received much more from the volunteering experience than I have given.” -- Ioannia Perifanos, Greece
“Volunteering has to come from the heart! It’s gratifying to serve and bring a sense of calm and peace to an otherwise chaotic situation. These experiences are priceless.” -- Marc Rosenberger, United States
“When an earthquake hit in east Japan, we were far away watching (by TV) and crying because we had friends and family in the disaster area. We saw the need and then got involved.” -- Yasuhisa & Makiki Masuda, Japan
“You never know what kind of impression you are leaving on someone else’s life. It’s rewarding to put a smile on someone’s face and make someone else’s day.” -- Linda Howorth, United States
