Make a difference
Perhaps the first and biggest benefit people get from volunteering is the satisfaction of incorporating service into their lives and making a difference in their community and country. The intangible benefits alone—such as pride, satisfaction and accomplishment—are worthwhile reasons to serve.
Help yourself
Through service, you can add to the quality and health of your life. Research indicates that volunteers enjoy lower rates of depression and heart disease, higher levels of happiness and stay active and involved in the community!
Help your community
Know that you are giving your time, talent, wisdom, and experience to your community and neighbors who need you. An active and healthy community is a place where individuals and families feel cared for.
Help others
Be part of a national movement to transform America through the involvement of its citizens. Volunteering impacts individual lives, whether they be young learners, seniors wishing to age in place or families with food security needs.
Help the organizations you serve
By donating your time and skills, you help make funds go farther for organizations and local, state and federal agencies.
