For parents seeking opportunities to serve their community with their children, finding a purpose-driven activity that fosters camaraderie and skill-building can be challenging.

Does life ever seem to play out unfairly for you? Does it often feel like the walls are closing in on you and you can’t get out of a situation? Or that everything that is bad is only happening to you?

Haven't spoken to your friend in a long time? Had a bad fallout with a family member recently? Perhaps the standoff between you and the other person compels you to not patch things up with them again for a long time or even forever. And why not?
