Impressions from the "Volunteer the Hague" presentation - 26/10/2016

So proud and so honored to have been the main speaker in the networking event of "Volunteer the Hague" at 26 October 2016, where both volunteers and organisations meet and look for each other! My topic was "How volunteering can help defeat loneliness" and I let people know how loneliness strikes during some transition periods in our life, how it affects our -mental and physical- health, and how volunteering can help defeat loneliness and connect with other people with who you share values and interests. 

​It is always nice to be around people that are willing to give and to offer, and, as I said at my presentation, volunteering can help us to get connected with other people out there, not to feel lonely anymore and to get a purpose in life by supporting others. It is nice to feel needed, useful and valued! 
​
Thank you "Volunteer the Hague" and Tetyana for organising that!
