Since Fife House's incorporation in 1988, volunteers have been the cornerstone of our agency. We would literally be unable to deliver programming to people living with HIV/AIDS without the approximately 300 volunteers who provide direct service to our clients, raise funds and help govern our agency. They contributed over 15,000 hours last year!
As the number of people who require safe, supportive housing, and the supports they require continue to grow, so too does the need for volunteers.
The commitment of our amazing group of volunteers is at the core of our excellent record of service delivery.
To all of you, THANK YOU!
Benefits Of Being A Volunteer
Feeling good about yourself is one of the best rewards you receive when you volunteer, but there are many more rewards. While each individual may have different reasons for volunteering, some of the most common benefits are:
- Gaining knowledge and skills (often viewed as professional growth),
- Personal satisfaction and growth (helping others and making new friends),
- Family interaction and involvement, and
- Community involvement (learning about your community).
No matter what your reasons are for being a volunteer, helping others is an enriching and rewarding experience.
