[quote=Anonymous]My parents volunteered at our local public school and public library. My father was a doctor and volunteered at free clinics. He also helped neighbors and friends with home construction projects. They had little interest in our synagogue, so did not volunteer as much there. When one of my parents died, the other had far less volunteer time. We lived in a somewhat, not fully, diverse community and people helped each other out. You didn’t have to go to the same church or be best buddies. People just stepped in quietly. This was in another city. Have not experienced community like this is DC area. Maybe it’s just where I landed. I miss it.[/quote]
