resume boosting!

I have been lucky enough to get involved with so many AMAZING volunteer programs throughout my college experience. I literally haven't had a single negative experience.

A lot of people volunteer SOLELY for the resume boost it brings, but I think there's so much more to get out of it than just volunteer hours.

Here's some programs I've participated in:

✏️ STEM Youth Summer Camp: I was a camp counselor and helped teach kids how to be innovative with material around the house. It was rather time consuming and exhausting, but al of the kids were so sweet.

✏️ Text & Phone Banking: I've done this since November and it's a great way to volunteer (without leaving your house). Literally, I have phone banked from my bed before. Super great to get involved in politics!

✏️ Mentor Program: I worked with low-income middle schoolers, giving them advice about future colleges and careers. The program itself also hosts so many events for the kids.

✏️ Animal Shelter: Okay this can be devastating, even though I volunteer at a no-kill shelter. If you love animals, I would recommend volunteering here. But be prepared for the worst sometimes :(

... Read moreVolunteering not only helps you enhance your resume, but it also provides invaluable life experiences that shape your character and skills. Engaging in volunteer activities can lead to personal growth and networking opportunities that could prove beneficial in your future career. Participating in programs like the STEM Youth Summer Camp offers a great way to inspire young minds. As a camp counselor, you not only introduce kids to innovative activities but also develop your leadership skills and patience, which are crucial in any professional environment. The fulfilling experience of watching children learn and grow under your guidance is an insurmountable reward beyond the hours logged on your resume. Similarly, getting involved in text and phone banking provides a unique opportunity to connect with the community while promoting social causes you care about. As you engage with voters, you learn essential communication skills that will serve you in any profession. Moreover, the ability to work remotely offers flexibility, making it an attractive volunteering option for busy college students. Mentoring low-income middle schoolers has a profound impact on both you and the mentees. It not only helps the children navigate their educational aspirations but also reinforces your commitment to community service. This experience enhances your empathy and interpersonal skills, essential attributes for many jobs in today's market. Lastly, volunteering at an animal shelter is a rewarding yet emotional experience. It helps develop compassion and responsibility. You learn to deal with challenging situations and build resilience, traits that employers highly value. Taking care of animals in need teaches dedication and can lead to potential career paths in veterinary medicine or animal care services. Ultimately, choosing to volunteer can significantly boost not only your resume but also your overall life experience. Embrace the rich learning opportunities available through community service and make a difference in both your life and the lives of others.
