    Description

    25 Years Ago, This Month!  Have You Thought About What You Would Have Done?

    It was 25 Years Ago, This Month! Have You Thought About What You Would Have Done in those circumstances? Would you have made sure the pregnant woman made it to safety? Would you have partnered to carry the woman who couldn't walk down the interminable number of stairs, and see her safely into the hands of the paramedics? If you are here, on Idealist, I bet you would have helped those in your path! That's why you are here now, looking for a chance to help others - to do some good in your neighborhood and make this a little better place for everyone. Here's that chance. If you can read, shop or drive we need you! There are neighbors who live with blindness and cannot drive, they struggle to get fresh fruit and vegetables or read and sort their mail or try helping with a hobby. With just a few hours per week or month you can lift the weight of the word off their shoulders!

    Schedules are very flexible, just do what you promise when you say you will!
