In this book, he shares his own experiences on how to lay down a fertile space for volunteers and dissects the importance to nurture them in a kind and respectful manner. Eddie provides concise examples on how to provide a bounty of opportunities not only for volunteers but for the community they serve. The book is insightful and inspiring."</p><p>Ruth Zermeño-Rodriguez, </p><p>Peer Counselor, Family Advocate</p><p>"Eddie powerfully lifts up the concepts of 'love thy neighbor' in this book. He illustrates how volunteering time and skills to our communities teaches teamwork, communication, conflict resolution, critical thinking, project planning and other important life skills. Eddie especially captures how human beings can bring out the best in each other through volunteerism. He also reminds us to preserve and treasure our interconnectedness as global citizens."</p><p>Ami Pascual Spear</p><p>Founding Executive Director, South of Market Foundation, Community Economic Development practitioner</p><p>"No one who works with volunteers should miss reading <em>Essentials for Cultivating Passionate, Inspired Volunteers and Leaders</em>. Eddie speaks from rich experience and a compassionate heart. The "essentials" he provides are spectacular for both their simplicity and depth! The book is remarkable for its brevity and comprehensiveness. It will become a core manual for leading volunteers in our church. In my humble opinion, Eddie is like our Santa Claus (<em>you'll have to read the book for this to make complete sense</em>) because he is giving our leaders the opportunity to serve, grow and contribute to our volunteers."</p><p>Karl Ortis, Pastor, Western Hills Church</p><p> </p><br>
