Tip of the Week March 4, 2024
National Volunteer Week is coming up! Established in 1974, National Volunteer Week is an opportunity to recognize the impact of volunteer service and the power of volunteers to tackle society’s greatest challenges, to build stronger communities and be a force that transforms the world. It’s also used to inspire people to make their communities a better place and to encourage volunteerism in general. The U.S. will celebrate NVW this year from April 21-27, 2024. In Canada, National Volunteer Week runs 14-20 April. Australia will celebrate NVW this year from 20-26 May 2024, and the United Kingdom celebrates Volunteers’ Week 3-9 June.
There are many resources available on the web to help you brainstorm ideas on how to celebrate NVW for your organization. A few of those include the websites for Points of Light, Volunteer Canada, Volunteering Australia, and VolunteersWeek.org
