Nourishing Hope’s Post

It's not about how much time you have, it's how you spend it. One of my team members had a goal to volunteer, but couldn't figure out when to do it even with Volunteer Time Off time allowed. I suggested they pick a day, request the time off now and plan to volunteer at that time. This morning, I volunteered at Hope Helps to pack bags of food for local children so they can have food during spring break. We packed 182 bags. How do you find ways to turn time into quality time? #volunteering #timemanagement #qualitytime

yet2 had a great time volunteering at More Than Words. We sorted through more than 1,400 books, working alongside the young adult coordinators who work at More Than Words “to take charge of their lives by taking charge of a business.” More Than Words works with some of the most vulnerable young adults in Greater Boston: those who are in the foster care system, court involved, homeless, or out of school. At More Than Words the young adults have a paying job that teaches them job skills, interpersonal skills, etc. while receiving focused support to ensure they persist in school and create plans for their future. #givingback #volunteering

Why do our volunteers choose to get involved in Crosslight Advice and give up their own time to help others? In this clip, Stephen explains what led him to wanting to support others.

Day 4: Volunteer your time to help others. Challenge: Volunteer your time to help others today. Volunteering is a great way to give back to your community and make a difference in the lives of others. It's also a rewarding experience that can make you feel good about yourself. Research has even found that when we volunteer, we live happier and longer! Comment below and tell us about a time when you volunteered your time, what did you receive from doing that? #Volunteerism #BeamAdventCalendar #Wellbeing

A blank page can be very daunting. After months of consultations with staff and volunteers across CHAS, I sat down a couple of weeks ago with a blank page in front of me to write the new CHAS Volunteering Strategy. It's been a huge team effort which has resulted in a strategy that will not only support the development of volunteering in CHAS but will also help us to support more children and families who need us. #volunteering #strategydevelopment
