Why volunteer?
Brush up those skills!
If you have been out of the workforce for more than a year, you may feel a bit rusty and out of practice. Volunteering your time is a great way to recharge that skillset and build back your confidence in a supportive environment.
Full Flexibility
We get it. Our team is filled with busy moms juggling carpools, unexpected fire drills and job interviews. We all do as much as we can with the time we have, but if something comes up for one of us, the rest of us step in to cover.
Employment Consideration
Your hard work will not go unappreciated. The goal of the organization is to become a fully funded operation, complete with competitive salaries. Once paid positions become available, volunteers will be given priority consideration.
Fully Remote
Our Milk Money has been working with a remote staff for more than a decade. In fact, we believe self-employed moms invented the concept long before the pandemic. If you have a computer and decent internet, that's good enough for us.
Eliminate Resume Gaps
To be clear, we don't believe you should have to apologize for work gaps, nor do we suggest that you should try to cover them up. However, it couldn't hurt to add us to your resume. Besides, we've been known to write pretty good recommendation letters.
Mental Stability
Situational depression is a normal response to being unemployed long-term. Submitting to countless online applications without any human response can be downright debilitating. A good way to remember your value is to do something that is seen and appreciated by others.
