Volunteer These Holidays ⛑️

To All Who Volunteer – In Any Way – Thank You! 🙏

Yes, even the small things count. Whether it's puppy-sitting, lending a hand to a neighbor, or supporting a friend, your kindness matters.

Thank you for spreading love, compassion, and joy in the world—it’s a much brighter place because of you.

Got a Bit of Free Time?

Did you know volunteering can benefit your mental health, boost your lifespan, and lead to a more fulfilling life? [1]

“Researchers analyzed data from 40 published papers and found evidence that volunteers had a 20 percent lower risk of death than non-volunteers. In addition, volunteers had lower levels of depression, increased life satisfaction and enhanced well-being.” [1]

You don’t need to start big—look around and ask yourself, how can I support and uplift those closest to me?

If you’re ready to dive deeper and commit to a cause that speaks to your heart, try searching “volunteer” along with your city name. You’ll discover a wealth of opportunities to contribute to a mission that fills your life with purpose and connection.

It all starts with small steps and meeting yourself where you are.

Let’s draw inspiration from Mother Teresa, who reminded us that even the smallest acts of love can ripple outwards.

Volunteer for Fenix?

Okay, so we’re half-joking here! But by liking, commenting, and sharing his videos on social media, you’re already helping us share his love with the world.

Sharing this email with someone you care about is another simple way to support our journey.

But just being here and part of our story is more than enough. We appreciate you and can’t wait to keep exploring this adventure together. ❤️

A Sacred Giving Workout

A Guided Process for Authentic Volunteering

1. First, be aware of any of the ways that you help right now, and give yourself credit for that. It could be a number, a family member, a friend. But do your best to see that you are probably already giving of your time in a number of ways. Great job!
2. Brainstorm time. If you were to give a few hours of your time every week, to someone, some organization, some cause – who would that be? No decisions or commitments here. Just write down anyone or any group that comes to mind! And remember you can google ‘volunteer’ and your city’s name to get great opportunities in your area!
3. Now trust yourself. There may be one or a few of the suggestions you’ve written down that really call to you…choose the one that feels joyful and expansive for you!
4. Action time. Let yourself be aware if you’re ready to take action, and reach out and offer to volunteer or find out the next steps! Remind yourself that giving this time to another will be a wonderful investment in your health and happiness!
