His post struck a real chord with me. As a dedicated community volunteer, I sit on many boards and committees. And I am frequently frustrated—even angered—to read the membership lists of various volunteer groups and note the names of many folks who never show up and/or do the work of the body. I also get irritated when I am the only REALTOR involved in issues that have a direct bearing on the quality of life in our beloved Montgomery, Alabama.
Those of us who make a living selling real estate in this community have, in my not-so-humble opinion, an immense obligation to give back. We are in positions of influence and can, if we choose, make a real difference. And if more of us were involved, what a difference that would be!
