Having Open and Honest Discussions

When the topic of volunteering arises with your students, it is a great opportunity to discuss the importance of giving back. Whether you choose to speak with them about at-risk individuals and communities, how to act and speak with respect, empathy and understanding, or the best ways to support and make a difference, having these open and honest discussions are so important.

Not only do these discussions spread knowledge and awareness, but they can also help to set a foundation for good morals and motivate students to continue volunteering and giving back throughout their lives.

Team Building

Communication and Listening

Packing kits is a great opportunity to sharpen communication and listening skills. Your students will have the opportunity to listen and follow instructions, ask questions for areas of uncertainty, and then work together as a group.

Build a Strong Foundation for Giving Back

The more your students are exposed to volunteering opportunities, the more likely they are to understand the importance. They will have an opportunity to really understand the impact that volunteering can do, creating an emotional connection that motivates them to continue this important work in the future.

As this strong foundation for giving back is built and strengthens, they will likely motivate others to also donate their free time to help make a difference for those who need it most.
