Give your time
Volunteering is a popular way of offering support to charities. In fact many people begin their careers in the not-for-profit sector as volunteers and many more like to use their skills and experience to give something back when they retire. Here are some ways in which you can help:
- Be a trustee, helping to run the charity
- Help their work by helping in the office or to deliver their services
- Help them with their fundraising
Some larger charities have volunteer coordinators, while in others, you may need to make direct contact with the departments in which you would like to work to get details on how you can volunteer for them.
