Episode Details

April, which is worldwide volunteer month, is set to start. I wanted to take some time to reflect on the significance of volunteering.

And I want to go way beyond the fluff. We all talk about, we're all getting together, we're working in community, we're helping our nonprofits meet their mission. These are all important things, but there is so much more power and volunteerism out there that I believe we don't often recognize, especially those of us who work in the field on a daily basis.

We usually don't give it much thought because we don't have the time. So, in this episode, I'd like to discuss ten reasons why volunteering is important.
