For me, when I was a kid, volunteering was the last thing I was thinking about. When I see kids doing it now, it amazes me.

I think all kids should take a little time out to volunteer.

It’s astonishing to me how many places in America, not way, way far away from cities, but in cities and near cities that don’t have access to broadband.
