A little service goes a long wayMake a resolution to become a volunteer this new year

BY LINDY JURACKiN75 Editor

If you’re making aNew Year’s resolution togive back, get involved inthe community or helpothers, there’s only onething you need to do asyou hang up a new calen-dar — volunteer. It’s fun,easy and free, and the re-wards you and others getfrom it make it an easyresolution to stick withthe whole year through.Our area is fortunate

to have an agency thatcoordinates volunteersopportunities in a waythat makes it easy to getstarted. HandsOnWestCentral Ohio helps volun-teers in Miami, Shelby,Darke and Logan coun-ties find positions that in-terest them and play totheir strenghts. And theprocess couldn’t be sim-pler.“We help by connecting

people with opportunitiesto serve through a volun-teer database at thewww.handsonwestcen-tralohio.org website, orpeople can contact theirlocal volunteer coordina-tor for personal assis-tance,” said Deborah

Brayfield, interim direc-tor of HandsOn and pub-lic relations coordinatorfor Council on RuralServices, which adminis-ters the program.To get started, visit

the website or contact thevolunteer coordinator inyour county. Internetusers can search for op-portunities by keywords,your schedule or location.You can also browse theorganizations that needhelp. Everything frommechanics, crafters, re-ceptionists, tutors andbingo callers are needed.You’ll fill out an applica-tion and go through anorientation with the coor-dinator. Depending onthe position you select,you may receive on-sitetraining or need speciallicensing or qualifica-tions.

All ages welcomeYou’re never too young

or too old to start donat-ing your time.“Everyone should vol-

unteer,” Brayfield said.“There are opportunitiesin all our communities foradults of all ages, familiesand children.”In 2012, HandsOn is

focusing on building upits Retired and SeniorVolunteer Program(RSVP), which includesall volunteers age 55 orbetter. Baby Boomers canmake a special contribu-tion as volunteers.“This generation has

the time, expertise andskills to do volunteerwork that impacts theircommunity more thanother generations havehad in the past,” Bray-field said. “Many of theseprofessionals that are re-tiring don’t want to sitdown. They need to bebusy, and we can givethem ongoing or short-time opportunities thatcan affect many organiza-tions and citizens.”Nancy Sharp, of Piqua,

started volunteering in

the RSVP program twoyears ago. She was takinga class in philanthropy atAntioch College and wasasked to find a volunteeropportunity. She startedhelping out in the officeat HandsOn, caught thevolunteering bug andnever stopped.“For me, it has en-

riched my life to be ableto give a few hours aweek and make a differ-ence,” she said.

Do what you knowWith a background in

secretarial work and theclasses she has taken,Sharp has found herniche in the volunteeringworld. She has writtengrants for Council onRural Services, done re-search for Habitat for

Humanity and served asa receptionist at SafeHaven, among otherthings. Being able to useher professional back-ground as well as her lifeexperience has made vol-unteering a very positivepart in her life.“It is very important to

me to be able to do thethings that I enjoy tohelp someone else,” shesaid, adding that shelikes to watch childrenenjoy the playgroundequipment her grantshelped fund at Council onRural Services.If it weren’t for Hand-

sOn, Sharp said shewouldn’t have found thepositions she has thrivedin because she wouldn’thave known where tolook.

“I encourage anyonewho has just a few hoursto seek whatever their in-terest is and just passalong the benefit of theirlife learning and work ex-perience to people whodearly need it,” she said.

Get kids involvedWhile retired profes-

sionals make excellentvolunteers, many oppor-tunities don’t need a spe-cific skill or have an agerequirement. Volunteer-ing is a great way to bondas a family, teach kids togive back or let teens ex-plore different careerpaths.“Kids have fun when

they volunteer, but it alsoteaches them about socialresponsibility, and theylearn every person canmake a difference,” Bray-field said.

To get kids involved,teachers can let Hand-sOn know if they’d liketo do a volunteer activitywith their students.Classrooms have beencalled upon to assemblepackets and makeposters. Teenagers inter-ested in pursing a teach-ing career can get ajumpstart by volunteer-ing as an after-schooltutor. Those with a de-sire to be creative mightfind fun assisting in akids’ art class.“It can help youth de-

cide what they want todo in their life by tryinga variety of opportuni-ties,” Brayfield said.

Stay activeOffering your time

also can be a way to getout of the house thistime of year.“Winter blues come

because people don’thave anything to keeptheir minds and bodiesbusy.We have all kinds

of opportunities not onlyat other sites, but, withthe winter weather,things you can do if youare home bound,” Bray-field said. “Classroomsalways need someone toget projects ready for thechildren. If you knit orcrochet, we have a laprobe project for nursinghomes and veterans.”Many New Year’s res-

olutions are all aboutyou — lose weight, getorganized, save money— and while those aredefinitely worthy goals,volunteering reaches be-yond yourself and yourfamily.“You can make a dif-

ference in the lives of

others, helping nonprof-its and your community.Many people think theycan’t make a difference,but there are opportuni-ties out in our communi-ties every day to impactthe lives of others,”Brayfield said. “Some ex-amples are tutoring eachweek for the child thatneeds to be more suc-cessful in school whilegiving them more self-esteem and social skills,or a nonprofit that canuse your grant-writingskills to help them ac-quire more funds towardtheir goals. Many agen-cies cannot even existwithout their volun-teers.”

Volunteers keepclinic operatingCompassionate Care

of Shelby County in Sid-ney is one of those agen-cies. The faith-based,free health clinic workswith HandsOn to staffall its volunteer needs,and with only six paidemployees and morethan 100 volunteers, itwould surely falter with-out the help.“We could not exist

without our volunteers,”said Ruth Ann Kuntz, aretired nurse who volun-teers her time at theclinic scheduling all thevolunteers.To help the under-

served and uninsuredresidents of ShelbyCounty, CompassionateCare has volunteer doc-tors, nurses, dentists,dental hygienists, med-ical assistants, pharma-cists and office help.

Many of its volunteersare in the RSVP pro-gram. The clinic alsouses volunteers forthings like buildingmaintenance and dona-tions of supplies.Churches volunteer tobring meals to the vol-unteers on Tuesdaywhen the clinic is openlate.“People really volun-

teer in a lot of differentcapacities,” Kuntz said.“And we can always usemore.”

From the time theclinic opened in August2007 to September ofthis year, more than33,940 hours of volun-teer time have been do-nated.Personally, Kuntz en-

joys volunteering at theclinic because shedoesn’t have to stopbeing a nurse just be-cause she retired.“I’ve been a nurse my

whole life,” she said. “Ilove volunteering herebecause you have agreater opportunity tomeet all the patients’needs and listen to themand talk to them. Mybackground helps metalk to the patientsabout their medications,diets and whatever theyneed.”

Personal rewardsVolunteering helps

the people and organiza-tions you’re serving, butyou don’t walk awayempty handed either.“Sharing your gifts

with others will give youas many rewards as youare giving. Volunteeringgives you the opportu-nity to change lives, in-cluding your own,”Brayfield said, speakingfrom experience.She has volunteered

in many ways through-out her life, but one ex-perience last year stuckwith her. HandsOn par-ticipated in the MartinLuther King Jr. Day ofService in 2011, andpart of it was a fooddrive. The HandsOn of-fice itself put a littletwist on it and asked itsemployees to donate petfood to be taken to thehumane society. They

turned it into a competi-tion, and the winner gotto make the contributionin person.“Volunteering like

that really opens youreyes. You can readthings in the paperabout different agencies,but when you go there,you can see what’s thereand talk to the workers,”she said.

Service daysService days, such as

Martin Luther King Jr.Day last year, are an-other way you can getinvolved, and Hand-sOnWest CentralOhio participates inmany throughoutthe year. Theseevents are one-timeopportunities togive back. For Makea Difference Day inOctober, agenciesdeveloped differentprojects, and Hand-sOn supplied thevolunteers to getthem done.For the food drive

for Martin LutherKing Jr. Day lastJanuary, 365 people,ages 5 to 84, volun-teered 708 hours oftheir time, and morethan 2 tons of food weredelivered to four foodlocal food pantries. Thetime those volunteers

put in meant someonewas able to put food onthe table for their familythat night. And thanksto the HandsOn employ-ees, the pets at the hu-mane society didn’t gohungry either. Volun-teers are needed now forthe projects planned forthe upcoming MartinLuther King Jr. Day.“Helping others in

need is such an impor-tant part of the Ameri-can way of life,”Brayfield said. “Even ifyou would like to sup-port a cause but can’t af-

ford to donate money,you can donate yourtime instead.”

Even morebenefitsThe benefits you can

get from giving back areendless. Brayfield saidvolunteering also canhelp you share or learn anew skill with others;meet new people andmake new friends;demonstrate commit-ment to a cause, whichyou can add to college orjob applications; findnew challenges; and

even increase yourhealth.“Long-term studies

have also shown thatvolunteers live longer,are in better health,have lower rates of de-pression and less heartdisease,” Brayfield said.It’s impossible to

know how many peopleare resolving to volun-teer in 2012, but anyonewho does won’t be alone.According to the Na-tional Corporation forCommunity Service, 29.1percent of Ohio resi-dents volunteer, which

equals $5.7 bil-lion of servicecontributed to thestate’s nonprofitorganizations.Also in Ohio,more than 56,000people participatein national serv-ice days each yearthrough projectsdeveloped andsupported by thecommunities.HandsOn pro-

grams exist all acrossthe nation. Fundingcomes from differentsources, including fed-eral, state and localfunds. RSVP is fundedthrough the NationalCorporation for Commu-nity Service, Center forNon Profit Resources —Toledo CommunityFoundation, ServeOhio, Ohio Area Agencyon Aging, local UnitedWay programs inDarke, Shelby andLogan counties, TippCity Community Chestand donations from

Emerson Climate.

Didn’t find that gorgeousbauble you wanted under thetree this year? Harris Jeweleris here to help.Every year, Harris Jeweler

holds its annual Clean SweepSale, and it is definitely worththe wait.The tradition of the after-

Christmas sale began yearsago featuring only one salecase for the week after Christ-mas. Throughout the last 65years the third generation, lo-cally owned jewelry store hastaken the two-week sale to thenext level.“We don’t have sales very

often and when we do, we

want to make them big,” saidBonnie Harris Frey, owner ofHarris Jeweler.This year, merchandise in

the entire store is on salethrough Jan. 7, with manyitems at 50 percent off.“We have clients who wait

to do their Christmas shop-ping for themselves until theday after Christmas just tocome in for our sale everyyear,” Frey said. “At 50 percentoff, they can wait until the dayafter Christmas and get twicethe piece for the same invest-ment. And with everything onsale from loose diamonds towatches, it makes it easy tofind that perfect piece.”The yearly sale helps Har-

ris Jeweler sell down on its in-ventory in order to make roomfor hot new spring items. Thestore travels all across thecountry throughout the springand summer in search of theperfect pieces to bring back tothe Miami Valley.“We are always looking for

unique quality items,” Freysaid. “We will go to an eventwith thousands of jewelry de-signers and only select one ortwo we feel is the quality anddesign we want for our store.”In fact, every one of the

thousands of pieces in thestore is hand-selected by theHarris Jeweler staff.“Our goal is to always keep

our inventory fresh, and we

are always looking for new de-signers. We also know thathaving the right jewelry forour customers is what keepsus thriving, and we are alwayslooking for suggestions fromour clients for new lines tobring into the store.”Harris brought back their

popular spinner rings thisChristmas on the suggestionof clients.“We had two clients bring

in friends this summer just toshow them the rings and wewere no longer carrying them,”Frey said. “If a designer is sopopular that clients are com-ing in just to show the piecesto their friends, we knew wehad to get them back.”

For those of you who foundexactly what you wantedunder your Christmas tree,Harris Jeweler can service itwhile you wait in their full-service repair and design stu-dio.“January is one of the

busiest months for our designstudio,” Frey said. “Everyonewants their new rings sized sothey can show them off, andwe realize that they don’twant to wait weeks to havethem sized. Our No. 1 goal isimpeccable customer service,and we feel that being able todo all repairs on-site is a hugepart of what makes us themost sought-after jewelrystore in the area.”

LOS ANGELES (AP) —Tony La Russa would likehis dog to spend more timein his lap. Bob Barkerwould like his rabbit tospend more time in its lit-ter box. And Lea Michelewould like her cat to spendless time in her cotton balljar.The Associated Press

asked several celebrity petowners about New Year’sresolutions for their ani-mals and resolutions theirpets might have for them.La Russa, the reigning

World Series championmanager, would like it if his12-year-old ChihuahuaTwiggy would jump into hislap every time he sat down.“I’d like that affectionatereassurance every time, notjust sometimes,” he said.And on behalf of Twiggy,

La Russa would resolve to“be the person that Twiggywants me to be and de-serves for me to be.”Jazz singer Roberta

Flack would resolve “not tohave to beg Yogi, my shibainu dog, to eat his breakfastor dinner so his food bowlwould not be looking at usall day long! He likes to bebegged to eat coerced givenone bite from the bowl byhand.”And for her: “That I talk

less and quietly. I have aseal point Siamese, Mimi-La, who likes to put herfront paw on my face as ifto say, ‘Shhhhh.’”Flack didn’t include res-

olutions for eight dogs, 12cats, a llama, six horses,three donkeys, several Chi-nese chickens, a road run-ner, three flamingos andseveral geese she cares forafter adopting them frompetting zoos and otherplaces.“CSI: Miami” actress

Eva La Rue would ask that“our bulldog Frank be lessof a ham. He is so funny. Healways needs to be right inthe middle of the roomwhere all the action is tak-

ing place. He constantlyneeds attention.“If Frank made a New

Year’s resolution for me itwould be that I would de-vote 100 percent of my timeto him only. If my shnoodle,Bingo, made a resolution, itwould be that he would getjust some of the attentionthat Frank demands fromus! LOL!”It seemed fitting to ask

some of the actors in themovie “New Year’s Eve” fortheir resolutions.Seven dogs Oscar,

Romeo, Stella, Piper,Weaser, Flora and Tamberwould like actress Kather-ine Heigl “to feed them con-sistently on time in themorning.”She wishes Oscar the

hound would “not be so ag-gressive toward strangers.That would be good be-cause I really don’t want toget sued.”Academy Award winner

Hilary Swank said of hertwo dogs: “They are sogreat. … I wish they could

do every interview with meand just sit right here andhere. That would be myNew Year’s resolutions formy dogs that they’re al-ways with me.”Josh Duhamel would

like his rescue dog Meatloaf“to really work on his coor-dination and work on get-ting a little more exercisebecause he’s strugglingright now. But he’s stillhappy and he’s not in pain.But it’s really hard to gethim to do anything. He’ssuper lazy. He’s like maybethe most unathletic animalyou’ve ever seen.”Lea Michele, from

“Glee,” says her cat Sheilaneeds a resolution.“I wish that Sheila

would stop going into mybathroom, taking out allmy cotton balls out of thejars and spreading them allover. So her New Year’s res-olution would be to get overthe cotton ball obsession.”Dog whisperer Cesar

Millan would like his pitbull Junior to continue as“an ambassador for power-ful breeds, reinforcing the

message that it’s not thebreed, it’s the human be-hind the animal.” And Jun-ior to Millan? “Acceptyourself,” he said.“We have cats, lots of

cats. They are pretty wellbehaved but one Ted. Iwould resolve that Tedmight start to work on get-ting along well with oth-ers,” said Joe Bonsall ofcountry music’s Oak RidgeBoys.“All of my cats might

wish that I stayed out onthe road more so theywould not have to share(my wife) Mary as much.Seriously! I am sometimesa blight on their existence,”he added.Fellow group member

Duane Allen said sports andmusic would top his list.“I taught my dogs how

to play basketball every-thing, except shooting. Sothat would be on the list. ltaught one how to sing. Iam now trying to teach myLab (Lana) how to talk. Shethinks I am Elvis.”And if Lana had her

way, “it would be to tell meto not talk,” Allen said.Country singer Buddy

Jewell wants his Akita Jackto “eat more pork chopbones!” And Jack, in turn,wants Jewell to “Grill morepork chops!”Retired game show host

Bob Barker’s has an 8-year-old rabbit. Mr. Rabbit al-ready follows Barkeraround the house “helpingme in every way he can.” IfBarker could ask for more,it would be “to use his boxevery time, not just whenit’s convenient.”And Mr. Rabbit’s resolu-

tion for Barker? What else?“To continue urging folks tohave their pets spayed andneutered including rabbits.”

Born in the mountainous village of Cagus Puerto Rico, Luis AngelCruz was raised by his parents Hector and Eloina of PuertoRican nationality in Cayey Puerto Rico.Today Luis has one son, LuisMiguel.

Since childhood, Luis hasdreamed of playing basketball inthe NBA. He studied at BenjaminHarrison High School, where heplayed on the high school varsitybasketball team. After graduating,Luis moved to Syracuse NewYork,where he played basketball duringhis college years.

Another passion was growing inLuis, the passion to sing. He begansinging in the church where he at-tended.

An avid photographer, Luis, withthe help of friends, Angel Rosado offranchiseadvertisement.com, andMario Anzulda, co-owner of HF Mod-eling Magazine, started his own model-ing company; HF Models, of LakelandFlorida. Their help and guidance helpedto build strong character, and gave him adifferent perspective and view about life.This has helped him succeed no matter what struggles he faces.

After spending six months trying to come up with an artistic name,Luis was talking to a friend in Mississippi. She suggested the name ElUnico, meaning “The Only One”. Since that day, LuisAngel El Unico be-came real in the world.

Luis always dreamed that one day he would write and sing a songthat would be heard around the world. Finally one day in November2011. He realized part of his dream, and wrote Recuerdos, off the albumPalabras Del Corazon. Deciding to write a song about Recuerdos, mean-ingMemories, helped him to let the past go and move forward in his life.The next day the song came alive. After spending the day in the studio,Luis Angel El Unico’s Recuerdos was born. With the help of AlexRivera, as El NegritoYNeptunes, reggaeton duet from FyneMuzik Fam-ily Inc. and producer El Cirujano, Luis Angels first single Recuerdoswas recorded.

Having a strong belief in God, Luis felt he was here for a greaterpurpose, to somehow somehow touch the lives of others and impact theirlife in a positive way. Through music he has been able to touch people’sheart and show them nomatter what we go through in life, with faith andGod with us, everything will work out, and that anything is possible.22

Home and Away with Dana WolfeNew year reminds us to pay it forward to those in need


It’s that time of yearagain, where you sit backand first wonder wherethe time has gone, andthen wonder what haveyou really accomplished.The past few years

have been really difficultfor all of us. I have heardstories and have person-ally experienced thingsthat I thought I wouldnever see. Things that re-ally pull and tug at yourheart.Last weekend while

leaving a local restauranta nicely dressed man ap-proached me and my hus-band. He said, “I’m notasking for any money, butcould I have what’s inyour take out box?”

“Absolutely,” my hus-band said.Mark reached for his

wallet, and the man said,“No, no … just the foodwill be fine.”When we got to our car

and went around theblock.We saw him sittingbehind the building eat-ing what we had givenhim. I can’t get thatimage out of my mind.During this time of

year, New Year’s resolu-tions and personal goalsare being made, and be-fore you know it, they arebroken. I’m going to ap-proach it a little differentin 2012. I’m not going toset goals or resolutions. Ihave a “55 List,” and dur-ing this year, I want to doeverything on that list.You might call it 55 gooddeeds in the year 2012.It may range from

sending a friend a card topicking up an elderly cou-ple’s bill at a restaurant.Sometimes just the mostsimple act of kindess canmake a big difference insomebody’s life. I know ithas happened to me, andin this bright, fresh newyear, it is time that we allpay it forward.It took that man, that

husband, that father per-haps, eating my leftoverfood that evening tomake me realize that weare all in this together totake care and love oneanother. Be kind in 2012.Happy New Year!Here are some New
