Volunteers shine like bright stars of generosity and care in a world where kindness sometimes feels hard to find. I am encouraging everyone to take a moment to celebrate these amazing people who give their time and energy to make our communities, lives, and hearts brighter. If you want to join in spreading the love, download this free printable card to say thanks! Let’s give a big shoutout to these everyday heroes who share kindness wherever they go!
National Volunteer Week
While it’s always a good time to thank volunteers, there’s a special week set aside every year just for them. National Volunteer Week is celebrated annually during the third week of April. It’s a perfect opportunity to express our gratitude and appreciation for the dedication and kindness of volunteers everywhere.
Volunteer Recognition
It’s important to acknowledge current volunteers who selflessly dedicate their time and talent to our mission. While swag like stickers, mugs, t-shirts or water bottles might be nice, chances are our incredible volunteers already have these items. Instead, consider a more personal touch: a heartfelt handwritten note. A simple gesture that speaks volumes, a handwritten note carries the weight of our appreciation and gratitude. To make it extra special, consider including a gift card if your budget allows. It’s a small token of thanks that rewards their willingness to go above and beyond, recognizing their efforts in a tangible way. Let’s ensure our volunteers feel valued and appreciated for all they do.
