From Collegiate Presswire's RadioWire (https://www.cpwire.com/radio): Radio With the New Year almost upon us, �tis the season to fulfill that resolution to volunteer! More Americans than ever are doing just that, thanks, in part, to Internet recruitment sites where anyone can find a local opportunity searching by zip code. More than 46-thousand volunteer referrals were generated by VolunteerMatch-dot-org last month, a new record. Jason Willett, communications director for VolunteerMatch-dot-org:
�No matter who you are or where you are in the United States, VolunteerMatch actually makes it easier then ever to find a great place to volunteer your time, and volunteer your energy. For instance, this month I�m personally volunteering with the Salvation Army and I�ll be putting together food and donation boxes and I actually found this opportunity on VolunteerMatch-dot-org and it took just a few seconds of my time. So anyone out there that wants to get involved, you can just fire up your computer, visit our web sight, it�s VolunteerMatch-dot-org, enter your zip code and you�ll see all the fun and rewarding ways you can give back to your local community right away. �
Willett says that the non-profit organization made more referrals in 2004 than any year since its launch in 1998. CLICK HERE to download a transcript of this story: CLICK HERE to download a multimedia (MP3) file of this story: © Copyright 2004 Collegiate Presswire, Inc. and NBN/CP RadioWire |
