Volunteer To Create Good Jobs

Save to Favorites

ORGANIZATION: Pacific Community Ventures

Looking for high-impact, meaningful volunteering opportunities using your skills? Interested in helping small businesses create good jobs? Consider becoming a mentor for small business owners across the country and support job creation through Pacific Community Ventures BusinessAdvising.org platform.

Pacific Community Ventures' Good Jobs, Good Business platform equips small business owners with the practical tools and resources to offer good jobs in a way that boosts the business’ bottom line with the needs of employees. We created this toolkit to remove the guesswork from the "how to" of creating good jobs, raising wages, and offering benefits.

However, we small business owners cannot do it alone: we’ve seen that business owners paired with advisors have higher success rates. Having access to your practical advice and insights makes all the difference!

As an advisor, you’ll have the opportunity to:

  • Use your unique skills and business knowledge to help small business owners create new jobs in lower-income communities
  • Serve as a mentor by working with a small business owner to discuss their challenges and give specialized advice and guidance to grow their business
  • If you can, open your network to small business owners to empower them to strengthen local economies across America

Help a small business create new jobs for working people in their local communities. You might be thinking, 'Who has time to volunteer?’ But the truth is, this is one of the highest impact ROI opportunities out there, as you can volunteer from your own desk or home and it only takes less than 5 hours a month to make a big difference in someone else’s life! Don’t worry if you’ve never worked for or run your own small business. We’ll match you with the right small business based on what you can contribute.
