Stories from the Heart: Lions Serving the World One Person at a Time (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781546219514)

This is a book about why people volunteer and what motivates them to continue their commitment to serve the needs of others. The designation in the title-from the heart-was chosen purposely because it identifies a place of origin. Using stories from the heart creates understanding about how service transforms lives. These stories create a greater appreciation for the role that service can have on an individual's sense of purpose. Focusing on stories from the heart was the right choice for a book about Lions International because of the association's impact on the world for more than 100 years of humanitarian service. Through the stories and comments included in this book comes a clearer understanding of what service to others has meant for those who have chosen to give of themselves to make life better for those in need.
