Volunteer Focus Group Participant (Professional Development/Upskilling Focus)
Do you do pro bono work to also polish your skills, get experiences on real life projects and gain references? We'd love to hear your ideas and insights!
Project Details
What we need
- Join a 1.5-2 hour focus group at Time Auction office
- Volunteers are required to have joined at least 1 skilled-volunteer project on Time Auction, and have "professional development" or "upskilling" as an interest
- You can choose the Focus Group time slots on (A) 6 Oct 2021 (Weds) 7:15pm-9pm, or (B) 12 Octo 2021 (Tues) at 7:15pm-9pm
Background
Professional development is a great added benefit of skilled volunteering. As 58% of volunteers do pro bono work to polish their skills, and 33% say they want to gain more references, we'd love to hear more insights from volunteers with "professional development/upskilling" as part of their motivation to give back, so we can hear your valuable opinions towards our new initiatives.
What we have
Focus group guidelines and agenda will be provided.
Why this is important
Your insights and ideas will help us brainstorm new initiatives to engage more volunteers like yourself - so we can empower both volunteers and NGOs through skilled volunteering!

What we do
Time Auction is a charity that advocates volunteerism. We encourage volunteering with inspiring experiences, while connecting skilled-volunteers with NGOs. By volunteering at any nonprofits, one can earn unique access to their passions — from learning to cook from Michelin-starred chefs to dining with inspiring entrepreneurs. With our volunteer community, we also match professionals who want to volunteer their talent with nonprofits that need those skills. Over 100,000 volunteer hours have been contributed to date since 2014.
