With busy lives, it can be hard to find time to volunteer. However, the benefits of volunteering can be enormous. Volunteering offers vital help to people in need, worthwhile causes, and the community, but the benefits can be even greater for you, the volunteer. The right match can help you to find friends, connect with the community, learn new skills, and even advance your career.
Giving to others can also help protect your mental and physical health. It can reduce stress, combat depression, keep you mentally stimulated, and provide a sense of purpose. While it’s true that the more you volunteer, the more benefits you’ll experience, volunteering doesn’t have to involve a long-term commitment or take a huge amount of time out of your busy day. Giving in even simple ways can help those in need and improve your health and happiness.
Volunteering:
  • Can be a good opportunity to make new friends and contacts
  • Increases your social and relationship skills
  • You get the opportunity to learn valuable job skills
  • Can help you gain career experience​    
We so appreciate all the fantastic volunteers that help out with our society! If you are interested in volunteering for the CR Head Injury Support Society email us! If you are unsure how or where you would like to start giving back, head over to Volunteer Campbell River & check out all the different areas and fields you can get involved with!
