PASR chapters are required each year to conduct a "Community Service Survey" of their members to document the hours of volunteer service they have contributed to the community in the past year.  The results of that survey recently showed that our members statewide contributed more than nine million hours  of volunteer service in the previous calendar year.  

This service was performed in a variety of settings -- schools, churches, youth or senior citizen centers, hospitals and in other community sites.  And the work performed took many different forms -- tutoring, mentoring, clerical work, cooking, care giving and other forms of service to others.

Why do PASR people do this?  Because we care!  We care about others and we care about the communities we served in our working lives.

To find out more about how your local chapter can get you involved in the rewarding work of voluntarism contact the Social Service or Community Service chairmen in your area.  They will be most willing to help you get started.  If you don't know who those individuals might be contact our state headquarters.
