  • Know what you want to get out of volunteering. You can volunteer in order to make a contribution, advance your career, meet new friends, gain recognition, or simply enjoy the personal satisfaction that comes from helping others.
  • Check the time it takes to do a particular volunteer job. How does the time commitment fit your schedule and lifestyle?
  • Think about your skills, interests, and life experiences and how they could be useful in a volunteer setting.
  • Be open and honest about your desire for meaningful and satisfying work.
  • Be willing to give and take honest feedback in your volunteer job, and, when necessary, to be an advocate for change.
  • Respect confidentiality related to your volunteer placement in all settings in your life.
  • Most important of all, bring your heart and your sense of humor to your volunteer service, along with the enthusiastic spirit which is, in itself, a priceless gift.
