Our PhilosophyOur PhilosophyOur PhilosophyOur Philosophy
• We believe that by making volunteering easier to coordinate, the community will more actively participate in service. Through service, the community will work together to help the poor and afflicted, thereby creating a better city. Through the small efforts of many, we wish to create a light to the world of unity and service.
