I love the Columbus Gives Back crew. I have volunteered with them multiple times and always have fun. Wonderful concept...one time volunteer projects, meet people and then hang out with the group after (drinks, lunch, etc.)
My favorite things about this group:
1. Flexibility - you can sign up to help out whenever you want. Once a week or once a year. I've added my name to events the night before if there were still open spots. It's great for my schedule.
2. The People - great way to make new friends and network. Very caring and enjoyable group of people to be around. Juliana, the group founder, and her team of project leaders help newbies feel welcome.
3. Causes - wide range of volunteer projects. You can choose to help with projects that matter to you. This is always important to me when choosing volunteer groups.
"It's service with a social twist." I recommend this group to all of my friends and I definitely recommend it to all my Yelp-ers. Get on the newsletter and get involved :) read more
