Volunteer Testimonials:
"I believe there are never enough hours for the LifeNet employees to do everything to support their clients. By volunteering, I hope I can do some tasks to help clients but also help the employees so they can focus on their critical work. Volunteering also gives you the opportunity to witness their great work first hand while helping people in need."
