MARQUETTE, Mich. (WZMQ) — NMU’s Volunteer Center held a skill builder workshop to find volunteer opportunities that best fit each individual wanting to get involved.
Students spent the afternoon volunteering in the Marquette community. Making blankets for the women’s center, crafting dogs toys for upaws, and making cookies for veterans.
Staff at the student enrichment center say helping someone find an opportunity they are passionate about, will bring the *volunteer joy along with who they’re helping.
Olivia Dunn, “Helping people find volunteer opportunities they are passionate about not just for a resume or just to volunteer for no reason, they are finding opportunities that they really seek good from.”
The Center says there are plenty of opportunities out there and finding the one that means something to you will keep it from being mundane.
