Mission Statement
Do good & you will receive good. 'Volunteers of Love' (VOL) is the charitable department of 'MIA InnerLight', it is a hands on charity and volunteering group. Many different projects are created throughout the year to help local communities in need, bringing some relief and improvement to their lives. Some of our past and present projects help the: Elderly, Visually Impaired, Homeless, Mothers & Babies, our Environment. The newest one will help teenagers living in foster care homes. They receive food, shelter and school, but we want to gift the 120 kids a duffle bag with many items in it. This is a gift that only loving parents would do. At this moment, they don't have this type of love. Most of our projects are done via partnerships with different Miami nonprofits, like 'See the World Education', 'Villa Maria Nursing Center' and 'His House Children's Home'. Partnerships help us to achieve bigger goals. All our projects are dearly named 'Loving', like 'Loving Bags', 'Loving Cleanup', 'Loving Performance', and the newest one is 'Loving TEEN Bags'. All of them are in the Miami-Dade & Broward county. Our hearts are big, then united with YOU, we can do much more. Our philosophy of life is "Do good and you will receive good." We are happier when we help others in need, and then we know that you will be too. Join us and let's spread love!
About This Cause
'VOL' is an Ecumenical group open to all people of good heart. In 2014, the project 'Loving Bags' for the unsheltered was created in New York City, then in 2017 it was brought to Miami. The initial idea was to create a simple gift bag to donate to our brothers and sisters temporarily living on the streets. Later on, the items in the bag were improved, including new t-shirts, underwear, socks and many other items. Last year, even raincoats were placed in it. In 2017, we raised funds to purchase over 100 bags with 13 items in each, since then every year these number of bags grows. In 2020, we created 405 bags, with 20 items in each. Last year, via a partnership with different groups, we got donations to complete 600 bags! True charity is always gentle and compassionate, because the manner of practicing kindness is as important as the deed itself. According to Jesus, charity is not restricted to giving alms, but covers all our relations with our fellow human beings whether inferior, equal or superior. It preaches indulgence on our part because we need the same ourselves, and it forbids us from humiliating the unfortunate, as is too often done. The practice of charity and the study of Spiritist Philosophy will assist our members & volunteers in learning how to improve morally, to forgive and be more compassionate. We strongly believe that these are main points we need to focus on our path of Spiritual Evolution. It’s not easy, but necessary for our inner light to shine, and then our World will be a better one.
