A millennial is defined as a anyone born between 1981 and 1996. As this group has entered the work force, many are seeking satisfaction outside of their 9-to-5 jobs through volunteerism. The American Heart Association recently reported that millennials are interested in volunteerism because the following reasons appeal to them:
• Social events
• Experience-based activities
• Group exercise classes
• Peer-to-peer influence
• World impact
• Instagramability
Consider volunteering with a local organization today to aid your career trajectory, practice a new skill, build your professional network and help out a community partner whose mission means something important to you.
