Joost Polak is a 58 year-old writer and also volunteers during slow times with work. It's been wonderful. These older volunteers aren't alone in their enthusiasm to help others. Another 23 percent say it's one of the most important values they hold. A quarter of those surveyed also say they volunteer time to charity or service organization at least once a week, and another 20 percent say they volunteer at least once a month.
Team work is important.
The workers are not only building homes. They are helping to build understanding and respect for others.
