It's National Volunteer Week!

April 15-21 is National Volunteer Week. At MSCCN, we and our job seekers are indebted to the volunteers who support our programs throughout the country and the world. Whether they are doing outreach in their local communities, writing for our publications, or supporting our Employment Specialists and Recruiter Connect Specialists, our volunteers are integral to the services MSCCN provides to military job seekers.

In honor of our awesome volunteers, we are featuring Candace Howard, one of our Outreach Volunteers who has been with us for over four months. 

We asked Candace why she volunteers. She explained to us, 

​“I volunteer to give back and to make a difference.  Why not share your talents with others? I have been very fortunate to be able to support a great organization like MSCCN. My vision has always been centered around helping communities and families.”

​Candace offered the following advice to those considering volunteerism, “Share your talents and gifts with others. Share YOURSELF with organizations that need you. As a volunteer you are important and will always make a difference. Volunteering can enable so much growth and also add to your professional development.”

If you have ever considered volunteering, MSCCN has a wonderful volunteer program that you can do virtually from anywhere. We are always looking for writers, human resource specialists, and outreach specialists to volunteer with us. You’ll gain experience, keep your skills up-to-date, and help some of the best jobseekers in the world.
