“Coming to volunteer at the Center for Hearing & Speech is something that I am looking forward to all week. I love the people. They treat you like family and like a family, there is never a dull moment. I always leave in a better mood than when I came in with and at the same time I feel like I’ve contributed to something larger than just myself. There is both a sense of joy and fulfillment that I receive from volunteering at the Center that is simply unmatched.” –Louis Zhang, Audiology Volunteer |
