Examples for volunteering

Years ago my friend Len Graivier, a pediatric surgeon in Dallas, was asked to help on the March of Dimes. He did that for a long time and was joined by his wife Pauline who went on to be nationally recognized in the organization. Len died last year but Pauline has continued with M.O.D. and the two are being honored this week with a major fundraising event in Dallas. They set an example for me as people generous with time and energy and smarts, supporting an organization that continued long after the initial concern with polio ended.
