For Alison Rollinson, picking out the best experiences from her volunteer work is a major challenge.
“There are so many to choose from,” said Rollinson,who has spent more than one year doing disaster volunteer work after Hurricane Katrina.
“The best parts are having the opportunity to be in an environment where you can meet the needs of people and know that your time is being used in a good way,” she said.
After spending her first few months working as a volunteer, Rollinson was hired full-time. Taking the step to do disaster relief work full-time — first as a volunteer and then as an employee — was just what needed to be done,Rollinson said.
Before Katrina hit, Rollinson had planned on moving to Key Largo and working as a hotel clerk. Seeing the need on the Gulf Coast, Rollinson changed her plans.
“I've always been interested in helping people out, and then, because of this hurricane and the devastation(毁坏) I saw on TV, I felt that my time would be better spent doing disaster work for a few months rather than sitting in a hotel,” she said.
Rollinson said,“I haven't regretted that decision once. The experiences have been life-changing and have taught me a lot about myself and the Gulf Coast residents.”
She said,“I hope that my experience will inspire others to come to the Gulf Coast to help, especially since so much work remains to be done. The needs are great for the Gulf Coast residents and volunteering to help is easy.”
“All people have to do is to have an open mind and give us a call,” Rollinson said. “Anyone can come here and they can help out in many different ways. It's great to be in such a supportive place where you can really feel the love.”
