Panel Discussion on Volunteering to Help Our Unhoused Neighbors
The fourth episode of our Behind the Scenes series provided space for 3 of Denton County’s community volunteers to walk through how they got started, what’s out there to get involved in, and their experience volunteering to make homelessness rare, brief and nonrecurring.
The world is full of what seem like intractable problems. Often we let that paralyze us. Instead, let is spur you to action. There are some people in the world that we can’t help, but there are so many more that we can. So when you see a mother and her children suffering in another part of the world, don’t look away. Look right at them. Let them break your heart, then let your empathy and your talents help you make a difference in the lives of others. Whether you volunteer every week or just a few times a year, your time and unique skills are invaluable.
