"I choose to volunteer for Team NM because it offers me the chance to grow as a servant- leader and learn from the inspiring individuals around me. I am eager to engage in community-centered initiatives alongside Team NM and encourage others to get involved as well. My experience with Team NM has been immensely rewarding, and I look forward to participating in more events in the future."

"Volunteering and being of service to others is something that was instilled in me from an early age by my mother — "The greatest gift you can ever give someone is your time." My first volunteering experience was in fifth grade, and I've been volunteering ever since! The desire to give back is what led me to Team NM. I was astounded by the number of events led by Team NM and the large variety of ways that, as a resident and now employee of Northwestern Medicine, I could give back to the surrounding communities. Being in contact with and meeting people through Team NM with the same commitment to service has been a wonderful experience."
