Volunteer Your Skills to Your Favorite Causes This Holiday Season

The holiday season is upon us! Nonprofits need your help to meet their end-of-year goals. While donating money is always a generous option, consider volunteering your skills if you're looking for a new way to support the causes you care about. Taproot Plus, our online volunteer matching platform, helps you find the perfect opportunity to flex your professional strengths, all while addressing critical social issues that are near and dear to your heart. 

Through Taproot Plus, you can connect with nonprofits in your favorite cause areas in the U.S., the U.K, the E.U., India, and we recently expanded to Canada! Here are 6 areas of pressing community challenges where your skills could help:

1. Education
These organizations provide educational programs for children and adults in STEM, English, computer science, and more.
