I was listening to the radio, and I found this podcast called Democracy Vibe Check. It's about civics and being active in your comunity. Give it a listen!
The episode I was listening to was about how to nurture your community, mainly through volunteering. An interesting few renarks I heard from the episode was that you can volunteer more than time and money. You can also volunteer your talent and experiences to help out a certain group of people. Volunteering is also a great way to get new skills that can be used elsewhere in your career.
This has made me think a little more deeply about how I can volunteer, and ehat strengths I can bring to volunteering. I hope this helps some of you as well, too!
Honestly, this was a very cool experience. Being able to log in with a Lemmy account on the open Fediverse showed me a taste of what is possible. Now if we can figure out how to migrate accounts to different instances I'd honestly love that so much.
