Brooklyn BookBeat
Who benefits the most from volunteering? The volunteers themselves. That’s the theme that runs through all the stories in the latest inspiring collection from “Chicken Soup for the Soul” — a book filled with stories about volunteering.
“Chicken Soup for the Soul: Volunteering & Giving Back” (Chicken Soup for the Soul Publishing, LLC; Amy Newmark; Foreword by Carrie Morgridge) is filled with stories about passion and purpose — from people who are passionate about their volunteer work and their charitable giving, passionate about the new purpose they have found in their lives, and passionate about what volunteering has done for them.
Alicia Rosen, a Brooklyn resident who has an MFA in Fiction from The New School, has contributed an essay to the latest volume. Her stories have appeared in numerous journals and magazines published in North America. She is a voracious reader, and a sketcher of family focused cartoons.
