Today I have included few Organizations that made a difference in community
Ekal-https://www.ekal.org/us/about-us that focus on rural area education in India ( Just $1 day they run for $365 one school that allows education to 20 kids year around . over 1,01,417 schools and educates more than 2.7 million children).

https://www.unitedway.org/ United Way of America, is a nonprofit organization that works with almost 1,200 offices The ones most people don’t have the stomach for.

https://www.akshayapatra.org/ Akshaya Patra Foundation is a non-profit organization in India that operates a school lunch programmer. The organization was established in 2000. It aims to counter classroom hunger and aid in education of children. It feeds 1,800,907 children every day across India
https://www.gleaners.org/ Gleaners was founded in 1980 by a group of concerned citizens who felt strongly that no one should go hungry. Since that time, we have distributed more than 520 million pounds of food and critical grocery through a committed network of more than 550 food pantries, soup kitchens, schools, and community partners
Conclusions :
Each one of us come across many volunteering organizations that inspire and motivate us to contribute to support the cause to help people . Whenever we give back to society make us strong and provide inner happiness in our heart .
Most people perform sewa, a service to humanity . No contribution is small or big and its not only related to just money as we can contribution in three ways:
Physically (Tan),
Mentally (Man),
Or through money (Dhan).
Each one of the ways is equally important . Most of the time it may be easy to get money collected but we need people who can invest time and burning desire in their heart to ensure to make it happens.
Not everything that counts can be counted. And not everything that can be counted, counts.” — Albert Einstein – value of volunteering? Volunteering is about giving, contributing and helping other individuals and the community. Volunteering means working with others to make a meaningful contribution to a better community.
What we are today is just due to help of others hence it’s our moral responsibility to keep the interconnected chain growing . I want to share one the example for my son Vinayak, he collected from our community $26000 to construct and build professional playground for our temple. Also my daughter Kamna has collected and distributed more than 2,500 pounds of gently used shoes to people in third-world countries through Soles for Souls, the nonprofit organization . In conclusion value of volunteering is much deeper, much more fulfilling and important in contributing to a healthy and vibrant community than money can ever measure. How can we put a monetary value on ordinary people doing extraordinary things? The value of volunteerism is priceless.
