A former professional organizer, I now eliminate stress for my clients by hosting, monitoring, and maintaining their WordPress sites so they don't have to worry about security, downtime or performance issues. When I'm away from my desk, I enjoy reading, photography, watching movies, and cooking.

    Such a fun topic!

    Organizing ourselves for the various ways we volunteer is one aspect, and then there is how to be organized when working with other volunteers. Both are important. I know where I live, many people volunteer to such an extent that it is a full time job. My community is fortunate to have such donations of time and talent. Volunteering is often the “unsung soldier” of many organizations’ success!

      I agree, many organizations couldn’t even exist if not for their loyal volunteers. I’d have loved to read more posts covering the issues that you mention!

    What a brilliant topic! Volunteering helps you help groups and organizations be more organized (so they can focus their staff efforts on key activities), and it helps you feel good, which organizes your mental health!
