CAB Les Artisans de l'Aide

Volunteering encourages interaction between community members and strengthens their ties.

When you volunteer, you help improve quality of life in your own community and build social capital. The social capital is a kind of reserve that fosters healthy living. It grows when people in the community are engaged in civic activities, gain confidence and spark the engagement of others. The higher the level of social capital, the more dynamic and healthy the community.
