The reason I volunteer at Butterfly Effect is simply to be there for others — to listen without judgment and offer support when it’s needed most. Sometimes just having someone to talk to can make a huge difference, and I hope that by being that person, I can help in some small way.

I’ve been lucky to have some amazing people in my life who’ve shown me kindness, understanding, and patience during tough times, and volunteering feels like a natural way to give back. It’s incredibly rewarding to know that by listening — can bring comfort to someone else.
