benefit society and community.

Who is a Volunteer?

A volunteer is an individual or a group of individuals who can contribute time, service and resources for

a “non-profit” cause.

The importance of Volunteering:

For a non-profit organization, involving volunteers is important because:

� It demonstrates community endorsement and investment in the organization and its work.

� It can create advocates for the organization who promulgate how great your organization is, will tell their friends, will address government bodies to advocate better support for the organization, etc.

� In some cases, it's part of your organization's mission (for instance, if an organization is focused on helping youth develop job skills, then allowing them to volunteer helps them develop job skills)

� It is a way to tap into the viewpoints of people who may feel more free and demographic in

criticism for the betterment of your organization than your paid staff.
