This is primarily because nonprofits often rely on them to support their programs and project delivery. Many volunteers are specifically trained in the areas they work, such as medicine, education, or emergency rescue. Others serve on an as-needed basis, such as in response to a natural disaster.
In a sector where nonprofits usually have more work to execute than the human resources available, volunteers boost their power, lighten the load, and exponentially increase their impact.
But how do they find these superstars who freely give their time, energy, and expertise? Where are they all hiding?
Now, nonprofits in Nigeria can find volunteers easily, thanks to Nzuriaiki.com: a website that lists volunteer opportunities and helps make making an impact in our communities easier. To start, nonprofits simply go to the website, sign up, and upload their volunteer opportunities. While volunteers can go to the website, type in their Sustainable Development Goal or location, and find volunteer opportunities.
Nzuriaiki.com doesn’t only showcase opportunities to connect people who want to volunteer with nonprofits. It also records volunteering history, allowing volunteers to track the various organizations they’ve worked with for future employment.
Speaking to Raquel Daniel, the Co-Founder of Nzuriaiki she mentioned that by actively volunteering, individuals who use this platform gain professional, technical, and soft skills that are crucial for employability.
“Our goal is to promote volunteerism in Nigeria and get as many people as possible to be active in helping their communities,” she added.
