Engaging in community service is an opportunity to become an active member of your community and has a lasting, positive impact on society at large. Community service enables you to acquire life skills and knowledge, help to resource the mission of a Provider, as well as provide a service to those who need it most.
Tips for getting started: First, ask yourself if there is something specific you want to do?
For example, do I want…
- to make it better around where I live
- to meet people who are different from me
- to try something new
- to do more with my interests and hobbies
- to do something I’m good at
The best way to be an effective volunteer is to match your personality and interests with the organisation. Having answers to these questions will help you narrow down your search.
