It's that time of year again! A time when nonprofit organizations across the nation will be celebrating the volunteers, like you, who help them be great. Whether you've given an hour, a day, or made a long-term commitment to serve, National Volunteer Week is a time to celebrate your accomplishments and honor your dedication to giving back.

But it's not just a time to celebrate -- it's also one of the biggest weeks for volunteers to get involved in their communities and build a lasting relationship with a nonprofit.

Show your support of volunteerism by taking the time to get the people in your life involved. Whether you help them find a volunteer opportunity, or you invite them to join you, take a moment to help them connect with a cause that they're passionate about.

To help volunteers in their search, VolunteerMatch is developing a resource that will feature volunteer opportunities specific to National Volunteer Week. In the next few weeks, we'll be launching this feature and you'll be able to search for volunteer opportunities in your area, as well as check out some great resources for celebrating the week. Stay tuned because more details are on the way.
