Volunteers - We need you!

You give of yourselves unselfishly in all categories of life asking nothing in return. You may not know how many lives you may have saved or know how many animals you have rescued or species of animals you have saved from extinction. Or how many Historical Landmarks you have preserved or Rain Forests for that matter, just to name a few great accomplishments of the Volunteers. Your categories range the entire alphabet from a to z and span the entire globe. This much we do know, the Volunteer has made the world a much more nicer and happier place to live in. RAOK salutes all the Volunteers in the world by saying THANK YOU for a much more beautiful place to live!

As I think of all those who understand!!!
All the many millions who get it!!
No check will be in the mail for them!!!
All those who just do it!!

Volunteers, who run our world, when...
Do we stop to thank them?
Do we stop to think of their families?
Do we think of their missed meals?
Those unsung heros of the world!!!!

I wonder what it would be like if???
They weren't there for the homeless???
They weren't there for the children???
They weren't there for the sick???
Those unsung hereos of the world!!!

Stop today, as you go through the day...
Think about the many volunteers in your life...
Your children's life...
Your family's life...
Your friend's lives...

Do you stop to thank those how make...
Life's way a little easier for everyone...
Do you stop to think what you can do???
Volunteers of our world make the world...
a better, friendlier, happier place for everyone...

All this for no payment...
Nothing but a smile, thanks...
Enrichment they will receive all for no payment...
Nothing required from all that receive...
Their service, help, sharing, love...

No Payment Required for all their service...
No Payment Required for all their help...
No Payment Required for their sharing...
No Payment Required for all their love...
No Payment Required for making the world a better place!!!!

Every man, woman and child who gives of themself, we salute you! Being a volunteer is often a thankless job. Please, allow us to say Thank You! For all that you've done, all that you do, all that you're doing, and all that you will do! Thank YOU!

Thanks to the members of the RAOK TLC Committee and Nick, our TLC Committee leader, for their work on this project! Without volunteers like you, it wouldn't have been possible!
