Description
Experiencing What You Get When You Give: What blood donation can teach us about designing volunteer experiences people actually want to be part of
What makes a volunteer experience meaningful? And in our efforts to make volunteering easy and accessible, are we removing the very elements that make it stick?
Join Ryan Adams of Canadian Blood Services and Angela Parker of Realized Worth for a lively conversation exploring what blood donation can teach us about employee engagement, meaningful challenge, and the power of a personal invitation.
Drawing on real-world examples and insights from corporate volunteering, they'll challenge conventional thinking about what motivates people to participate, what keeps them coming back, and how volunteer champions can turn a single act of giving into an opportunity for connection, leadership, and lasting impact.
You'll leave with a fresh perspective on designing volunteer experiences that inspire stories worth sharing, motivate people to get involved, and keep regular participants coming back for more.
