[Jeanetta price]

Although we’d all like to assume people volunteer for selfless reasons, it’s not a bad idea to think about what you’ll gain from one particular volunteer position over another. There could be academic credit involved, or exposure to people in the field you’d like to end up in after graduation. Think about what you want to get from your volunteer experience, as everyone’s end goals differ when it comes to unpaid service.
