Virtual Volunteering During COVID May 14, 2020

Show notes

This week we are talking with Danielle Holly of common impact. Common impact is a nonprofit that works to build and strengthen communities. Danielle and I talk about the idea of virtual volunteering and how they have an impact on the current crisis that we're dealing with.
Volunteering during the time of uncertainty is critical to the idea of community. We see that when people volunteer, they feel that they have part in the process and they also feel that they're not a burden on the system while interfering, helps with rebuilding the community as well as keeping community identity.
