Unleashing the Power of Giving: A Conversation with VolunteerNow CEO, Rachel Currie Triska

In this episode, we sit down with Rachel Currie Triska, the dynamic CEO of VolunteerNow®, an organization at the forefront of volunteerism. With an impressive mobilization of 310,000 volunteers, who collectively gave 1.6 million hours to 3,500 local nonprofits last year, VolunteerNow's impact is truly transformative.

Rachel sheds light on how volunteerism fosters a sense of community, strengthens social bonds, and empowers individuals. We delve into the organization's approach to volunteering, its efforts across myriad cause areas, from education and health to animal welfare and the arts, and how it serves as the crucial connective tissue between nonprofits and dedicated volunteers.

We also talk church, community and a whole new way of fostering togetherness and relationships.
