April 17, 2014: An article by Didit’s Eric Wiggins appeared in the Young Island section of the Long Island Business News this past week. Eric’s article, Volunteering Can Help Build a Career, discusses how being involved in a great social cause can also boost one’s career prospects. Among the benefits of volunteering are learning how to network, becoming more comfortable with public speaking, learning time management and leadership skills, and meeting new friends, partners, and connections.
Eric notes that “even if you’re just volunteering a few hours a month at a food pantry, good causes need more than just a pair of hands (although they need that badly, too). Even if it’s as simple as running out to buy supplies or making sure a site is clean after an event, working for a cause teaches great lessons in accountability and leadership that easily cross over into the professional sphere.”
