Making New Connections
Volunteering introduces you to others in your community who share your values. It’s a great way to form new friendships and expand your network.
Improving Your Health
Volunteering has been shown to improve self-esteem and reduce feelings of isolation or depression. Some roles can also help you stay active, both physically and mentally.
Building Career and Life Skills
Volunteering helps you strengthen valuable skills like communication, teamwork, and problem-solving, while also gaining experience in areas that are transferable to your career.
Enjoying Yourself
Volunteering gives you the chance to do something meaningful, different, and fulfilling, all while giving you the chance to get out into the world and have some fun!
