In his monthly column, AWWA Executive Director Jack Hoffbuhr recounts an experience he had building a school in the Andes Mountains of Peru while serving in the Peace Corps. Citing this as one of many examples of volunteerism, he writes about the importance of the power of volunteers and the difference they make in the quality of human life worldwide.
