Many people participate in volunteer efforts to support the causes they care about and make a positive impact in their communities. But did you know that serving as a volunteer can also positively impact your own health and well-being?

In this free webinar, you will learn how to be the change you want to see in the world while also changing yourself for the better. Discover the many wellness benefits of volunteerism, including improved physical and mental health, lower rates of anxiety and depression, deeper relationships, a greater sense of purpose, and more.

This class will provide general tips on pursuing your passion in the volunteer world, whether you want to use the talents you already have or find volunteer work to stretch your skills and build new ones. You will also learn how to find opportunities that best suit your interests and resources to help you connect with meaningful causes through Stanford and beyond. Opportunities are open to all ages and backgrounds.
