We joined the MSAA volunteer organization as Resource Detectives, we will be identifying agencies and organizations which provide resources that can benefit the MS community. The information we find will be used by MSAA’s client services department, which handles their toll-free Helpline.
One of the many things we will be researching is how convenient this lifestyle (RVing) would be for the individuals afflicted with this illness, but also how many places out here are handicap friendly.
This opportunity is truly a great fit for us since we love researching, reviewing, and then sharing all we learn with others. What better way to do it all and being able to help others while we are doing what we love.
Several of our friends who has a loved one that is confined to a wheel chair have approached us and wanted some information about the places we visit, if they are easily accessible for the handicap. We could not answer those questions since we really had not paid much attention to that dilemma, but now we will be able to give them all the information they would need to begin living their dream of traveling the country.
We are true believers that anyone can do anything they set their hearts to do and now we can assist them by giving them the tools to do this, what a grand opportunity for us!
For more information how you can become a volunteer, just click on the title and you will be directed to their website to see if anything may inspire you.
Another great link for volunteering is the Volunteer Match website http://www.volunteermatch.org/, they have many opportunities to volunteer, even “Virtual Opportunities”. There is no more excuses why you can’t volunteer, if we can do it while RVing full-time so can you!
