What do volunteers get?

[James Falconer]

So - you want to become a volunteer - but are wondering what you might get out of it?

First off, let me say if you're only interested in volunteering because you want to get rewarded with physical products or money - you're going to be disappointed. That's not how we work!

We DO however reward our volunteers with other types of things, including:

• site swag
• exclusive opportunities
• special 'volunteer only' projects and challenges
• private team forums
• private volunteer only Slack channel
• weekly updates from the Community Manager (that's me!)

On top of all that you also become part of an exclusive club. It's all about doing good and helping our members with their problems and questions as fast as you can. It's a humbling experience, and I have a feeling once you start engaging with our members, you're going to meet a lot of great people, and maybe even make some lifelong friends in the process.

If you're still interested, make sure you read about all of our different volunteer teams in this forum. Chances are there's a volunteer team for you, provided you're up for the challenge!!
