Lending a hand is very important, especially in a small community. Eden Springs appreciates our employees and residents as well as our volunteers. Lending a hand can make a very big difference.

Below are a few volunteer quotes from Alpena Volunteer Center.

"Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it's the only thing that ever has." - Margaret Mead

"Without community service, we would not have a strong quality of life. It's important to the person who serves as well as the recipient. It's the way in which we ourselves grow and develop." - Dr. Dorothy I. Height, president and CEO of the NCNW

"Everyone can be great because anyone can serve. You don't have to have a college degree to serve. You don't even have to make your subject and your verb agree to serve... You only need a heart full of grace. A soul generated by love..." - Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

"Volunteers are the only human beings on the face of the earth who reflect this nation's compassion, unselfish caring, patience, and just plain love for one another." - Erma Bombeck
