Thinking about volunteering?
If you are interested in
volunteering but are not sure where to begin, try asking yourself the following
questions to determine what kind of volunteer opportunities will suit you
best:
If you had all the human and financial resources in the world, what
problem would you solve, what would you change or what would you create? Your
answer will tell you what matters the most to you.
What kind of time
commitment are you willing to make? Are you looking for a regular weekly
volunteer commitment or maybe a short-term or one-time opportunity
Would
you like to volunteer with other people or by yourself?
Do you have
specific skills or talents you would like to share with an organization?
Would you like to develop a specific skill?
What are your
personal goals? Would you like to re-enter the workforce? Meet new people?
The answers to these questions will offer a good start in determining
your volunteer expectations. There are many exciting volunteer opportunities at
Naval Station Mayport. For more information on volunteer
opportunities, please contact the Family Employment Readiness Manager at
