Embrace
Homeless Outreach
Taken from Andrew's volunteer highlight with the organization:

"It is a simple, yet powerful way to connect myself with the greater issues of humanity, and it helps me put smiles on the faces of struggling individuals.

Through Embrace, I have come to enjoy and respect all the hard work that is altruistically put forth to aid in the lives of the homeless population.

Volunteering is essential for the high school and college demographic, because it allows for an appreciation, acceptance, and a desire to assist in remedying others' obstacles in life. We could have been dealt the worst hand, but we were NOT! And therefore, it is important to recognize this and help serve the greater community in need of a helping hand.

I volunteer, because it gives me a huge sense of satisfaction and accomplishment, knowing that I have helped and maybe even greatly influenced somebody's life for the better."
