Have you ever wanted to find a way to give back to the community through an organized network of local nonprofits that need helpful, awesome volunteers? Well you are in luck because Seattle Works has been providing this service to aspiring givers for over 20 years! As it says on their website, Seattle Works “connects volunteers, develops emerging leaders, and inspires dialogue†within the Seattle community, building longtime partnerships for future success, both for volunteers and organizations.
Seattle Works provides wonderful, active citizens, such as yourselves, with service opportunities of all types. Whether it be a one time volunteer experience or an extended commitment to service and leadership development, this organization can help anyone out. Primarily targeted at a “younger†audience, the organization is rooted in the idea that people are most likely to step up and give back to the community during the earlier stages of their life, and once they have started, are more likely to continue doing so. However, although this may be the target, we Divas know that they welcome participants of all ages and backgrounds.
So whether you want to volunteer once at a pre-planned event or establish a longterm commitment with an organization that you think you would love, get to know Seattle Works. You can find out more on their website or, if you you have no time but you have the moolah, you can donate to the cause.
