Inspirational Reference for Overseas Volunteers

This is an inspirational and great reference for potential volunteers with interest in overseas work and exposure to various cultures. It lists most all of the prominent agencies in the field and gives some amazing stories of how volunteers with limited resources can make a huge difference. It is especially useful for the younger-set as they consider volunteer work.

Great Ideas

In this day and age when giving back is a timely topic, and the world seems smaller and smaller, Susan Skog's book brings much needed light to various ways that we can all contribute to the world. There are ideas for everyone covering any area of interest. No matter what past experience in giving back involves,there is something for you to discover here. Susan is obviously passionate about facilitating change in the world and in people's lives. I found it very informative but also very inspiring! It's uplifting to know that so many are doing such good work, including Susan Skog!

Food for the soul, inspiring

It's inspiring to read of the many ways that giving changes lives, and encouraging to see how ordinary citizens and their small actions can be so powerful. It's a thoroughly enjoyable and uplifting read, giving us hope in the generosity of mankind. But it's also helpful, giving you ideas on how you can give, how you can activate your own inner Oprah. The timeliness of this book cannot be understated.
