The Multiplier Effect

When a professional marketer volunteers 10 hours to develop a fundraising strategy for an NGO, the impact can be worth thousands of dollars in revenue generated over years. That's the power of skills-based volunteering.

The Numbers Don't Lie

Studies have shown that:

Skills-based volunteers contribute an average of **$195 per hour** in value

Traditional volunteers contribute approximately **$29 per hour**

That's a **6.7x multiplier** on impact

Beyond the Numbers

But it's not just about money. Skills-based volunteering creates:

1. Sustainable Solutions

When you teach an NGO how to run their own social media campaigns, you're not just solving today's problem - you're building capability for years to come.

2. Professional Development

Volunteers gain real-world experience in new contexts. A corporate lawyer helping with nonprofit governance learns about social impact. A tech manager building a database for a charity learns about resource constraints.

3. Deeper Engagement

Skills-based volunteers report higher satisfaction because they see the direct impact of their specific expertise. It's the difference between "I packed boxes" and "I designed a system that will help them serve 10,000 more families."

The Asia Opportunity

Asia is home to:

Over 3 million registered NGOs

The world's fastest-growing pool of skilled professionals

Unprecedented digital connectivity

Yet the gap between NGO needs and available skilled support remains massive. That's why we built JustBecause.asia.
