Involvement In Global Volunteer and Mission Projects For Future Leaders

The demand for local and global volunteer experiences which promote the well-being of communities continues to grow, forging connections and building relationships around the world. Volunteers not only fill in community need gaps with extra hands with compassion and commitment, but the process of volunteerism helps the volunteer to grow spiritually, and emotionally. It also builds self-confidence and gives the volunteer a sense of purpose in their lives.
