VolunteerMatch offers Virtual Volunteering for Volunteers and Nonprofits

Are you interested in volunteering, but can't find the time to get away? Well, Virtual Volunteering may help. Virtual Volunteer opportunities let you volunteer from "virtually" anywhere -- so you can contribute your time and expertise without ever leaving your office or home.

Virtual Volunteering opportunities do not require face-to-face contact with the host nonprofit and do not have specific geographic boundaries that would prevent participation based on your location. Virtual Volunteering is aimed at eliminating the barriers which can prevent good people from getting involved: work schedules, transportation issues, or disabilities. And even if you're not facing these challenges, it's a creative, new way to get involved!

Put your talents to work by expressing interest in a virtual opportunity. You can critique a press release, design a web site, become a helpline telephone volunteer, or tutor a child -- all as a volunteer for an organization that could be half way around the world. So what are you waiting for?

If you are an organization looking for good people where ever you can find them, try posting a virtual opportunity. You can recruit volunteers from around the world to serve your mission. Virtual Volunteering isn't for every organization, but if you need help that could be done from someone's home or office give it a try; there are good people ready to help.

So happy Virtual Volunteering! And please let us hear from you -- we want to know about your experience. Or if you have any questions, send an email to .
