Some days, like those where I referee a tricycle race for adults, I think to myself, "I can't believe this is really my job."

Why the United Way is ending 5 decades of funding to a London children’s charity
For the first time in 50 years, Big Brothers Big Sisters of London and Area (BBBSLA) will not receive funding from the United Way Elgin Middlesex. Both groups say the change is not personal, but rather an example of a larger struggle to find and allocate funds.

I have been #laidoff twice in my career. I've also quit several jobs without having any prospects for alternative income.

I've never been afraid to move on into the future.

The first time I was laid off was 1980. I had been on the job for 6 weeks, was doing very well according to everyone working with me, and then one day my boss came in and asked me to attend an unscheduled meeting in the conference room. Almost everyone in the office was there and we were all laid off by the corporate office.

That was, of course, at the height of the 1980 recession (it doesn't have a "cool" name like Great Recession or Pandemic Recession).

10 years later after I had left another job I came down with severe pneumonia. Couldn't work or look for a job for months. When I was able to get up and around, my mother suggested I do some #volunteer work.

So I called #UnitedWay and asked if they could refer me to some organization that needed help.

I spent that summer tutoring kids at a local school. It was one of the most rewarding experiences of my life.

If you have lost your job and don't know what to do, but you've got a roof over your head and food to eat, try #volunteering for a while. It will help you appreciate your own self-worth and may inspire you to try something new.

Don't just sit at home and wonder what you can do with your life. You can always do something meaningful.

I work for my local United Way. Local United Ways provide VITA services in many places, but VITA is not exclusively a United Way program, so if you're looking for VITA services in your area, check your local United Way's website or use the IRS's official VITA site locator (The IRS page is updated February–April, so it won't display any results right now, but check back next year). #VITA #Taxes #IncomeTax #TaxPrep #UnitedWay #UnitedIsTheWay
