Volunteering has many benefits

I think volunteering is great. You can't get much better than helping others.

Sometimes there are tangible bonuses
as well. Given the opportunity to help clean up after an event, consider jumping on that. An awesome side benefit is you often get the spoils such as leftover food.  Usually, that's also a benefit to the charity as well since they often must get rid of extra food.

Another volunteer opportunity that our family participates in is that we are among the handful of volunteers who go food shopping for events at our synagogue on a regular basis. The synagogue sends us a long list to buy food at Costco, they reimburse us, and we get the points towards cash back on our credit card.

These volunteer opportunities are win-wins. The charity gets your hard work and efforts and you get a bonus!!
