    Benefits of Volunteering

    Many have probably heard the phrase “The Benefits of Volunteering are Endless!” Although it could be perceived as just a marketing ploy to grab your attention or perhaps an over exaggerated descriptor, a valuable volunteer experience does contribute so much to personal growth and development and ultimately to the organization or to the greater community. People volunteer for many personal reasons and not all benefits relate to all volunteer positions or to all individuals. However, research shows that there is enormous personal value in volunteering.
