April Is National Volunteer Month

April is National Volunteer Month—a time to recognize and celebrate the impact of volunteers in our communities. What started in 1974 as National Volunteer Week has grown into a month-long movement to honor those who give their time and to inspire others to get involved.

Why Volunteer? Volunteering isn’t just about giving back—it also offers personal benefits, including:

✅ Boosting mental well-being

✅ Preventing isolation and building connections

✅ Providing a sense of purpose

✅ Increasing physical activity

✅ Learning new skills

Finding the Right Volunteer Opportunity Looking to get involved? Here are some simple ways to find the perfect opportunity:

🔹 Start local—Check community boards, libraries, and social media for nearby opportunities.

🔹 Follow your passion—Support causes that matter to you, whether it’s animal rescue, environmental work, or mentoring youth.

🔹 Be realistic—Choose a commitment that fits your schedule and availability.

🔹 Get social—Ask friends, family, or coworkers about causes they support.
