Volunteers have a higher life satisfaction and are less lonely than non-volunteers. Volunteer Now has reported on the updated volunteering data, which includes the wellbeing data collected by the Continuous Household Survey and they published the updated report at the end of March.
Volunteers also had better general health than non-volunteers. Overall, people who volunteered had a greater sense of self-efficacy, which refers to an individual’s belief in their ability to accomplish tasks and achieve goals. Volunteers also felt more in control of their own lives, which leads to better decision making and a more positive outlook on life.
