The evidence is startling and compelling: Community life is beneficial to your health and well-being—not by a little, but by a lot. Getting involved in a group or organization is as beneficial to your health as quitting smoking. According to Lewis M. Feldstein, president of the New Hampshire Charitable Foundation and co-author of Better Together: Restoring the American Community, data shows that if you are not a member of a single social, civic, religious or fraternal organization and you join one in a particular year, your chances of dying that year drop by a staggering 50 percent. Add tangible benefits to your health and livelihood: Walk for cancer or join the PTA, the garden club, Rotary, or the church, synagogue or mosque of your choice.
