Quite a bit. I think we all have a responsibility to make our communities a better place to live.
Sometimes it takes a while to see the payback, but it is worth it.
My kids now play on playground equipment that I helped build several years before they were born.
After helping with another event at a park a couple of years ago, I saw a couple of older gentlemen working on this veteran's memorial, and I jumped in and helped the rest of the day. I was pretty oblivious to the gathered viewers until they sent me this photo. I like it because I think it shows a good message.
