Skills-based Volunteering

Skills-based volunteering is the intersection of a person's professional skills and experience with the needs of nonprofits. Hands On Nashville is now offering a Skills Bank - a collaborate initiative that provides a means for local nonprofits to connect with volunteers who have specific skills to meet the nonprofits organizational needs.

Examples include:
  • Designing an organization's website.
  • Training on human resource issues.
  • Translating program materials into another language.
  • Statistical data.
  • Providing expert carpentry skills.
  • Presenting workshops to students.

For companies, skills-based volunteering by their employees can serves as cost-effective training and development tool.

For employees, skills-based volunteering serves as a highly developmental experience which can expand and sharpen workplace skills.
