Have you ever considered volunteering? It gives you a chance to give back. You’ll feel a sense of pride that you are volunteering your time, and a local organization will benefit, too. But how to volunteer? Follow the three steps before you enjoy it.

Pick an organization. 1. You’re likely to be happier and volunteer longer at an organization that supports a cause you care about. For example, if you’re interested in animal welfare, maybe you want to volunteer at an animal shelter. Much like job search sites, you can also use volunteer websites like Volunteer Match or Serve.gov to help you find volunteer opportunities in your area. If you still can’t narrow down where you want to volunteer, start asking people you know where they volunteer. 2.

Be clear what you can offer. First identify your skills. For example, maybe you could write brochures for local nonprofits if writing is your style. 3. You need to be sure how much time you can give to an organization based on your other commitments. If you try to do too much, you ‘re more likely to give up.

4. Treat the application like a job. Spend some time preparing for the interview, much as you would for a job interview. 5. Ask what’s expected of volunteers. For instance, volunteers at a museum may be expected to learn parts of the galleries to give tours. Start volunteering slowly. That is, it’s better to commit to just a little bit of time at first to see if you like volunteering at the organization.

A.Apply and get started.

B.Volunteer in person or online.

C.Then don’t forget to review your weekly schedule.

D.You’d better focus on the causes you like very much.

E.You may find one of them has the perfect opportunity for you.

F.It is also a time for you to assess whether the organization is fit for you.

G.First find an organization that’s a good fit for you, and then decide what you have to offer.
