Building the Bridge: Enriching the volunteer experience to build a better future for our communities (Research Findings)
How can we bridge the gap between what youth – young Canadians aged 15-24 years old – are looking for in volunteering today and how organizations are engaging youth volunteers? Conducted in the summer of 2010, a new pan-Canadian research study provides the most current national data about the changing culture of Canada’s voluntary sector, including information specific to the nation’s youth population. Unlike earlier surveys that emphasized overall participation rates, this new research captured: – What youth want in their volunteer experiences; – The issues youth have in finding satisfying volunteer roles; – and What organizations can do to enhance the volunteer experience for youth, which in turn can help them achieve their missions and ultimately build stronger communities.
