3 Reasons Why You Need to Pay Attention to Your Volunteer's Interests

1. Create a Better Volunteer Experience

Volunteers who are intentionally matched with roles that align with their skills, interests, and abilities are more likely to stay engaged in the organization than those who were merely placed to fill a gap.

2. Value-added to Your Organization

When you are intentional with the roles you create and offer to your volunteers, volunteers are more likely to get involved more or in a bigger capacity because they experience meaningful work in what they do.

3. Know What Your Community Needs

It's not a secret that your volunteers are people who live in your community. Knowing what your community needs and having roles that are tailored to filling this gap allows your volunteers to feel even more connected not only to your organization but also to your community.
