I set out to celebrate volunteers, so we want to give back to the community.
We got to tap in.
People just want to belong somewhere.
Every day, people offering help.
Can I get a raise of hands?
And sharing their tables.
We're all part of one neighborhood helping America remain a nation of neighbors.
Please remember to eat.
And also, I love you.
Salute!
