After you’ve moved into your new home, unpacked, settled into a daily routine and explored the area, you’ll notice that many Palm Beach County residents have made excellent use of their downtime by engaging in local volunteerism.
Animal rescue facilities, nature centers, museums and other venues, as well as, underserved children and homebound seniors, all need the generous support of volunteers. One of the best ways for you to happily integrate into your new community is to experience the gratification of helping others. Volunteerism is a win-win for you and those you help.
