Monster.com Supports Volunteers!
Monster Supports Volunteerism by Launching a New Online Volunteer Center in Alliance with Idealist.org and boardnetUSA.org, Two Leading Volunteer Sites!
Monster, the leading global online careers property and flagship brand of Monster Worldwide, Inc., today announced its support for volunteerism through the launch of a new online volunteer center, developed in collaboration with Idealist.org and boardnetUSA.org, two of the leading sites dedicated to providing volunteer opportunities. The Monster volunteer channel is designed to help connect the millions of users who are interested in volunteer opportunities by allowing them to search by interest and location.
In a recent Monster poll, 66 percent of Monster users said they planned to seek volunteer opportunities in 2005 (a). This represents a significant increase over the 54 percent of Monster users who stated they completed volunteer work in 2004 (b). The Monster volunteer channel has thousands of volunteer opportunities -- from transportation providers to fundraisers to board memberships at many nonprofits across the country -- each that give people a chance to give back to their local communities. Get out there and give back!
