In an effort to diversify our volunteer programme, we have introduced Micro-volunteering.
Micro-volunteering is bite-size volunteering with no commitment to repeat and with minimum formality, involving short and specific actions that are very quick to start and complete. The idea is that these simple tasks only take 5-10 minutes and can be done with just using your smartphone or laptop, anytime, anywhere, on your own terms.
Micro-volunteering could involve anything from signing a petition or sharing retweeting a message to pricing some grocery items for our Livelihoods Department or completing a survey. No need to sign up or undergo training, the tasks take only minutes to complete, and it doesn’t require any ongoing commitment.
Through this initiative, persons are able to still be actively engaged in the National Society and still give back based on their own capacity.
