A volunteer in Arizona was leafing through an old book when, to her shock, she found $4,000.

Cathy McAllister, a retired teacher who has been volunteering with the Volunteer Nonprofit Service Association in Phoenix since 2012, was helping process donated books when she came upon a dated copy of “The Rise and Fall of the Roman Empire.”
