skills-based volunteering
“Skills-based volunteering is about sharing your expertise”
Most people are familiar with more traditional service-based volunteering: The type where you help to paint a school or read to kids. Whilst this is always a rewarding and helpful thing to do, it can require a lot of time, and often only achieves short-term outcomes.
Skills-based volunteering allows you to put your specialist business skills to good use, offering advice and guidance to charities looking to professionalise and grow. This results in high-impact, sustainable change for the charity, and a growth in personal development for mentors.
