192 Volunteering Expo 2013

Written by Kuya Harvard

It was last year when Kuya Harvard stumbled upon an invitation to see Volunteer Expo 2012 in Intercon Hotel in Makati. Months later, he met some people from VSO during Giving Goes Social Seminar hosted by our partner, Unionbank. Last December we took part in their forum in Miriam College. A short narration of how we became part of this year’s Expo.

The Expo was held on the top floor of Gateway Mall. The venue was called Gateway Suites. Kuya Harvard was with Vice President- Internal, Ate Amy, one of the board members, Kuya Matthew and active volunteer, Ate Camille. For 10 hours we took the time to meet potential partners from NGOs, volunteers and even companies. Yes, we got tired. Yes we got challenged. But for us it was worth all our efforts. We look forward in tapping the people we got engaged to.

There were also a whole day forum presented with multiple topics on how to be a more effective volunteer. We decided not to be a delegate because we figured meeting other groups can provide the same learning experience. And it did. Great job VSO for launching another platform for volunteers! See you next year.
