Volunteer Testimonials:
“Being a volunteer for the MTF Writing Committee makes me feel connected to the professional community and keeps me informed about current massage therapy research. The writing group is a meaningful way of connecting research to practice. We use words to share the power of touch!” –Jolie Haun, PhD, LMT
“It’s not always about my professional development. I also find positive, personal development when I am doing the work of a volunteer at the Massage Therapy Foundation: preparing to interact with my fellow volunteers, donors and staff (phone call, email, or live conversation or activity) by putting myself in a place of gratitude and appreciation is a very cool reason for me to volunteer.” –David J Otto, LMT
