There is a great post over at Pigs will Fly highlighting the benefits of corporate volunteering by staff from big banks. It is true that there are often more rewards than we realise when we help others, particularly if we have the opportunity to use our skills to do it.
What situations have you found rewards where you were not expecting them?

I agree – volunteering is so rewarding. I think it’s something that everybody should get involved in, wherever possible, including kids.
Love your point about including kids Donna-Marie. I guess I hadn’t thought about actively encouraging my kids to volunteer it has been a flow on from my own involvement but it is good to consciously encourage them to engage in their own volunteering opportunities.
