You've heard it before..."oh this experience changed my life", "a once in a life time opportunity", "the people you meet, the friends you make". As many of you may remember just over 12 months ago I embarked on a remarkable two week volunteer program in New Delhi, India as part of the Connecting Hearts Aboard 2013 program.
Hand on heart, this experience well and truly changed my life and was a once in a life time opportunity. As for the people I met and the friends I made - people you treasure and remember for the rest of your life. For those of you who read my blogs via Lilly's The Loop, you know through my words, the power of this amazing experience and what is does for all involved - it truly is a gift that keeps giving. I would do another program in a heart beat.
If you have a love for giving back to the community through volunteering, a thirst for experiencing different cultures and a desire to take yourself out of your comfort zone, then take a few minutes to apply for this wonderful program.
By applying you've opened your mind to being part of a program that fosters being a member of the greater community and giving back to those less fortunate than ourselves. If your application is successful, the program will encourage growth and an open mind across so many facets from within ourselves first and foremost, to this inspiring world in which we all live in.
We as Lilly employees are so fortunate to have the opportunity to apply for such an incredible program. And yes, you may not be selected first time round, but do not despair because as the Indians say, "it will all work out in the end, and if it doesn't, it isn't yet the end".
Please email or call if you'd like to discuss the experience in more detail. Wishing you all the very best for the week ahead.
Namaste,
Em
