Why do you do it?

I have always had a drive to serve the community around me ever my time in Boy Scouts as a youth and the Student Volunteer Coordinator in High School. To be able to help those around me and to see the fruits of my labor have always fostered a sense of pride that I am contributing to a better community and world around me rather than only seeking self-aggrandization.
