This class is geared toward retirees looking to give back, people needing to fulfill required community service hours, and those wanting to volunteer as a way to explore a new career path. Hear from a seasoned volunteer coordinator for nonprofits who will provide insight into how organizations typically determine their volunteer needs, recruit, and value their volunteers. Learn how to interpret volunteer listings to gain a better sense of whether they are a good match for your commitment ability, skillset, and personal passions.
