Student Volunteering Guide
Volunteering is a great way to gain personal and professional experience while making positive changes in your community. The vast array of volunteer options provide opportunities for people of all ages to get involved and develop technical skills and educational insights not taught in the classroom. Volunteering creates lasting impacts on the health and well-being of communities and improves the lives of all involved—including the volunteer.
Volunteers have a vast impact on local and global communities. According to the Corporation for National and Community Service, about 62.6 million Americans, or 25.4% of the adult population, gave 7.7 billion hours of volunteer service worth $173 billion in 2013. The University of Maryland School of Public Policy Do Good Institute calculated that the value of volunteer time averaged $31.80 per hour in 2022. The value and amount of time spent volunteering inarguably makes a difference.
This guide aims to inform you how to find a volunteer opportunity that best fits your comfort, abilities, and interests to create a positive and productive volunteering experience.
No matter your age, the relationships you build through volunteering can impact your professional future. With this in mind, it is important to approach your volunteering opportunity thoughtfully. The volunteer work you do demonstrates characteristics often sought after by potential employers and colleges. Any amount of volunteering can cause positive change, but you should go into the process with some “rules.”
Volunteering in High School
What are the benefits of volunteering in high school?
Here are some benefits of volunteering as a high school student. Keep in mind that these are just some of the benefits!
TANGIBLE BENEFITS OF VOLUNTEERING IN HIGH SCHOOL
College Applications: Volunteering in high school shows college admissions officials that you care about the community and have the time management skills to commit to a volunteer position alongside other commitments.
College Credits: Some high schools reward volunteer work with academic credit. To find out if your school offers credit for community service, contact your school counselor.
Community Service Scholarships: Utilize your commitment to volunteering by applying to community service scholarships available to high school students that can help pay for college tuition.
Learn a New Skill: Interested in gardening? Love working with animals? Take advantage of volunteer opportunities that provide outlets for you to learn new skills not typically taught in school.
Explore Career Options: From a law office to a local school, choosing to volunteer in a field of work that you’re curious about pursuing as a career will help inform your understanding of what careers you’d like to further explore.
INTANGIBLE BENEFITS OF VOLUNTEERING IN HIGH SCHOOL
Better Person: Volunteering teaches the value of having compassion for others and how to be a productive member of your community.
Feel Good: Being a volunteer isn’t always easy or glamorous, but it is beneficial and uplifting. You will gain perspective and a deeper appreciation for your surroundings.
Meet New People: No matter the age, building relationships with people is valuable. Volunteering allows you to meet new people outside of your own age and demographic.
Time Management Skills: Volunteering outside of school hours forces you to manage your time between school, extracurricular activities, homework and other activities, which will help you learn how to balance multiple commitments.
Learn about your Community: Stepping outside of your circle of friends to volunteer will expose you to different sides of your community. Gaining a new perspective on your surroundings will better your knowledge of your own community.
