“How people show up to provide service in their community is changing. While they may volunteer at a food bank, they might also start a letter-writing campaign to help create food security in their community." CCVO's president and CEO Karen Ball is one of the nonprofit leaders sharing their thoughts on volunteer recruitment in this Future of Good article. Read the article to see the rest of her thoughts, along with insights from nonprofit leaders from across the country.  #volunteering #volunteerism #volunteers

There is truth in this comment. If you're a company looking to make an impact within your local community by leveraging your employees' desire to use volunteer time, make sure it is worthwhile for both them AND the organization you are helping. If it is just two hours, please, PLEASE reconsider your time commitment! As an organizer on projects such as these, I can tell you that the first 30 to 45 minutes a company volunteer day is spent just herding the cats, introductions, going over safety instructions, and doing photo ops. If that leaves just 75 to 90 minutes to actually work, your company's staff won't feel like it was worth their time. The employees WANT to get their hands dirty! They WANT to do something that isn't looking at spreadsheets or emails! And most of all, they WANT to know that when they leave later that day, they can say they made a difference. And you know what they say: "You've GOT to give the people what they WANT!" #volunteering #activism

📍In 2019 when I started my official #Volunteer service I thought to myself it's about service and changing the scope of trends one at a time and I can look back and say I am happy I took that decision as the evidence is written in sands of time, although there are still grounds to cover. 📍While the world makes complaints a reality, it's a paramount call to all of us to look critically at what can be done savagely in the course of the complaints. 📍We must learn and adopt #Servicetohumanity by choice or by default either by heart or action, trust me it's for the sake of the generation, children, and the future we seek. 📍Volunteers are the fuel of courses greater than ordinary, let's brace up, identify, and embrace the little services we owe immediate space. Thank you Africado Foundation for the recognition and for creating the service space.

Meet Zuzanna! 🌟 Zuzanna, one of our Supervisors, Let's hear what she has to say about DCS: "I think Dublin Community Support (DCS) is a great volunteer group. Being a part of the group really helps if you ever wanted a career in support services or emergency services. It's great to go out and help the community and you come across so many different situations. DCS provides the team with great trainings. Whether it be learning about all the support services available to an individual or knowing how to use a rope bag, there's training available for everything. Not only that but DCS Management also provides a great support network for all it's members. It comes in mad handy if you dealt with something serious on a particular night and just wanted to speak to someone to get it of your chest. Honestly i love being out with dcs being out there to help people and also having the best team around me."
