    One of the best days of my life. I got to help people while fooling around with power tools. Add the bonus of making a Kiddush Hashem. I look forward to helping the next chance I get, and I encourage everyone to do as well.

    I helped as a volunteer during the Katrina deployment in New Orleans. Aside from helping the people affected by the disaster, the experience was very rewarding to the volunteers.
