Today was the Fight For Air Climb. The event had many changes this year but it's the American Lung Association's biggest event for the year in Des Moines. My friend, Jennifer and I volunteer every year and this year we headed downtown at 6 AM again. This year many of the "climbers" went up 66 flights of stairs . . . another great reason to volunteer (instead of participate.)I am passionate about volunteerism and feel so fortunate to be able to work with volunteers for my paid job but I think it's important that I volunteer myself also. Finding once a year events is one of my favorite ways to volunteer. I also look forward to the summer months with opportunity to volunteer at the zoo again!
