Volunteer Success Announces the Launch of the Offers by Volunteers Feature

By: Volunteer Success

Volunteer Success is proud to announce the launch of Offers by Volunteers feature on our website! Beyond simply applying to volunteer opportunities posted by organizations, our Offers feature allows volunteers to make an offer of a skill, talent or time which will be promoted to organizations. Organizations interested in the volunteer offer can easily contact the volunteer through our website.

Offers by Volunteers is particularly helpful when prospective volunteers wish to offer their specific expertise but they may not be able to find a specific posted opportunity that matches with what they’d like to do. An example may be an offer for a musical performance or willingness to consult on marketing strategy. Conversely, organizations may not always promote an opportunity to get involved when they only require one person with a very specific skill set. Offers by Volunteers allows volunteers to promote their talent and time in a specific way to a wide variety of organizations.

Volunteers can offer their support virtually across Canada or within a geographic radius of where they live. Contact information for volunteers making an offer are available to all registered organizations logged into their account on Volunteer Success.

Volunteers looking to make an offer simply register or sign into their Volunteer Success account and then navigate to Make an Offer in their dashboard. Organizations interested in exploring offers by volunteers simply register or sign into their Volunteer Success account and navigate to Offers by Volunteers in their dashboard.

As we look at next steps where businesses are starting to open up, staff are starting to reimerge out of their home offices and companies are looking to get back to business…this may be a great opportunity to look at what corporate volunteerism means to the company, the employee and the non-profit organizations.

Benefits of Volunteering for College and University Students: Get Involved In Your Community + Build Experience!

By: Chelsea C Anthony

What are some of the benefits of volunteering for College and University Students? For university and college students planning their future careers and preparing to step into the workforce, it is easy to feel nervous, overwhelmed, and unprepared. As a student myself, these are feelings I know all too well. We sometimes feel we lack the necessary skills, expertise, and connections to get the jobs and opportunities we want. We may even feel intimidated by the interview process, believing we are some kind of imposter waiting to be caught out. Volunteering is one great way to deal with this!
