Community & Giving Back

Whether it’s the Gates Foundation or donors like Ron Hershco, volunteers who help children or the vital team behind Kars 4 Kids, there are so many in all communities who give back regularly.  Some great quotes about giving:

·       “Those who devote their lives to serving our country, children, and neighborhoods are giving back. They have answered the call to serve.” Jennifer M. Granholm

·       “I really enjoy doing charity, for a good cause, it’s like the least I can do, I really enjoy that stuff. I enjoy giving back.” Alex O’Loughlin

·       “I am a huge believer in giving back and helping out in the community and the world. Think globally, act locally I suppose. I believe that the measure of a person’s life is the affect they have on others.” Steve Nash

·       “It’s enough to indulge and to be selfish but true happiness is really when you start giving back.” Adrian Grenier

·       “No one has ever become poor by giving.” Anne Frank

·       “I absolutely believe in the power of tithing and giving back. My own experience about all the blessings I’ve had in my life is that the more I give away, the more that comes back. That is the way life works, and that is the way energy works.” Ken Blanchard

 ·       “I believe that the rendering of useful service is the common duty of mankind and that only in the purifying fire of sacrifice is the dross of selfishness consumed and the greatness of the human soul set free.” ~ John D. Rockefeller, Jr.

·       “Service to others is the rent you pay for your room here on earth.” Muhammad Ali

·       “You can have everything in life you want, if you will just help other people get what they want.” Zig Ziglar

·       “If you wait until you can do everything for everybody, instead of something for somebody, you’ll end up not doing nothing for nobody.” Malcom Bane
