This is a book about why people volunteer and what motivates them to continue their commitment to serve the needs of others. The designation in the title—from the heart—was chosen purposely because it identifies a place of origin. Using stories from the heart creates understanding about how service transforms lives. These stories create a greater appreciation for the role that service can have on an individual’s sense of purpose. Focusing on stories from the heart was the right choice for a book about Lions International because of the association’s impact on the world for more than 100 years of humanitarian service. Through the stories and comments included in this book comes a clearer understanding of what service to others has meant for those who have chosen to give of themselves to make life better for those in need.
