I grew up in Thailand and camr to America for my college. Then I met my husband and we decided to live here.We have kids and my husband required me to spend time volunteer in schools and community since our first child was 2 and a half year.I did my share almost full time volunteering in schools and non profits.30 hours a week for 20 years, plus we donate the average 3000 dollars a year in the 26 years. I will do the same in future.
