Myth ❌ “Volunteering is a waste of my time” Facts ✅ One of the biggest misconceptions about volunteering is that it isn't beneficial for the volunteers. However, NCVO found quite the opposite to be true. 92% of people who had given time volunteering in 2023 were satisfied with their experience, and 75% of people said that it had helped with their mental health and well-being. These stats show just how valuable volunteering can be for you, let alone the charity or organisation you are helping! 🤩 It's Volunteers Week 2024, so be sure to share this post to raise awareness of the amazing benefits volunteering brings! #volunteersweek #mythbusting

When I'm not helping businesses with their online presence, I'm volunteering with numerous charities and community groups. Currently, I'm busy planning our next selection of events: Checkley Parish Food and Paws Fest in August, Great Wood Hall's Social Fridays, and Great Wood Hall's Craft Fayre. Plus, I'm already preparing for the Halloween and Christmas events! Organising these events involves a lot of hard work and dedication. From brainstorming ideas to managing logistics, the effort that goes into making these events successful is immense. As someone deeply involved in community work, I understand the struggles and the rewards that come with it. Whether it's coordinating with vendors, managing volunteers, or promoting the event, each task requires careful planning and execution. But despite the challenges, seeing the community come together and enjoy these events makes it all worthwhile. If you’re part of a charity or community group and need help with planning your events, managing your online presence, or increasing your outreach, I’m here to support you. Reach out to me for help – I'd love to assist you. #CommunityEngagement #EventPlanning #CharitySupport #CommunityGroups #OnlineBusinessManager #CheckleyParish #GreatWoodHall #Volunteering #EventOrganising #MakingADifference

Tuesday Tip: Volunteering vs. Timebanking #Volunteering is typically an unpaid role that fills an unmet, need of a nonprofit. The nonprofit defines the roles, the tasks, number of hours, duration of assignments, etc. #Timebanking is an opportunity for the individual to define the work they want to do, when they do it, how they do it, and how long they offer to do it. Moreover, they receive time currency equal to the number of hours worked, and that time currency can be used to purchase services and goods that meet their needs. If you're operating a nonprofit that needs #volunteers, consider timebanking your unpaid volunteers. It is the socially just thing to do. Also, your organization is more likely to attract a diversity of volunteers, one that reflects the population it serves--and that is socially meaningful. #timecurrency #winwinwin #respect #redefine #workforcedevelopment #volunteermanagement #volunteerwork #voluntarysector #voluntariado #nonprofit #nonprofitleadership #philanthropy
