newsletter?idallasgenealogy. orgTOP TEN REASON FOR VOLUNTEERING
Why volunteer for DGS? Here are the' top ten
reasons Jeri Steele has for volunteering:
10. IT SAVES THE LIBRARY RESOURCES: Vol-
unteers provide valuable community service that
allows DPL to stay open for genealogy research.
9. IT STRENGTHENS THE GENEALOGY COM-
MUNITY: You help foster interest in and use of the
genealogy section of DPL.
8. YOU LEARN A LOT: By helping others with the
genealogy research, you can deepen your skills
and knowledge.
7. IT'S A CHANCE TO GIVE BACK: Others
helped you to get started, so repay the universe by
helping someone else in their research.
6. SHARE YOUR SKILLS WITH OTHERS: A task
done by an experienced volunteer might take 30
minutes to one hour a week. Share your expertise
in planning, accounting, management, team
building, word processing, Adobe Acrobat software,
entertaining, or teaching. You never know what skill
we can use next!5. YOU CAN LEARN SOMETHING
volunteers can be used as references
can help you on your problem
research, or teach you a new skill.NEW: Fellow
on a resume,
genealogical4. DGS MIGHT GET $ FOR YOUR EFFORTS:
For example, Exxon-Mobil has a foundation that will
donate $500 for retirees that volunteer over 50
hours in a quarter. You volunteer and we make the
application together.
3. BECAUSE YOU HAVE A PASSION: Genealogy
is so fun that you want everyone you meet to enjoy
it too!
2. YOU MEET NEW PEOPLE: I never met a
genealogy "stranger," just a friend I never knew yet.
Just start talking about your own genealogical
research or ask them about theirs.
1. YOU CAN MAKE A DIFFERENCE: Because
volunteering makes a difference to the Dallas
Genealogical Society and to the Dallas Public
