In times of uncertainty, when everything around us feels unsteady, volunteering is said to be good not just for the community being served but for those who give back!
How can that be, especially in a topsy-turvy year like 2020?
According to Forbes, volunteering can help improve your daily life and:
- Decrease anxiety by spending quality time helping others
- Develop, refine and build new professional skills
