Volunteering helps you to be a part of something greater than yourself. While it not only helps people in vital need, it also helps the volunteer reduce stress, learn valuable life skills, make networking connections, and help to combat anxiety and depression. Volunteering can help others immensely but it can have great benefits for the volunteer too!
