Volunteering: A Force That Moves the World Forward! Communities around the globe are facing complex and urgent challenges. At the same time, disconnection and isolation make it harder to mobilize people to take action. But volunteering has the power to transform lives, strengthen communities, and move the world forward.
At Points of Light, we believe that volunteers are essential to addressing critical needs, and we are committed to increasing volunteer engagement through research, insights, capacity building, and culture change.
