Reason 68

Volunteerism. My mother is a strong believer in helping out the community, and since I am practically a carbon copy of my mom, it seems I have ended up with the volunteer gene. In high school I frequently served dinner at a local men's shelter; in college I organized fundraisers; after college I worked with Americorps NCCC; and recently I have given my oh-so-precious time to a local organization called Seattle Works. Why, just today I spent a few hours at a local food bank with some colleagues, sorting donations into giant bins. We moved a little over 17,000 pounds of food in under two hours, which will help more than 3,000 local families. There is just no better feeling in the world than being a martyr and using my generous heart to make others feel petty and useless. From what I have read, you don't hesitate to throw your time and name behind non-profits either. Recently you made out with Russell Brand to raise money for Haiti (not sure why people would pay to see that, but what do I know about Hollywood?), and last year you chatted up a toy drive and cancer screenings for women in various interviews. I would also bet dollars to doughnuts that you give large sums of money to charities. If you don't you better jump on that because really, no one needs all the cash that sitcom actors make. It's kind of obscene. Perhaps once we are friends, Jason, we can volunteer together at some place worthy of our combined awesomeness. I'll start putting the word out that we're available.
