While working on the packing line, one of the volunteers commented, “This is great. I not only get to help the families in Haiti, but I get to work alongside other people. Teamwork always makes it more enjoyable for me.” This volunteer worked longer hours than most. Had he been asked to pack food in a warehouse alone, our guess is that he would have volunteered fewer hours. It was working closely with others that made the experience feel more valuable to him.
