Resolve to be a Committed Volunteer: Life is full of responsibilities, obligations and activities. Amazingly, though, some of the busiest people manage to set aside time for volunteer activities. You may be one of them. If so, you are aware that volunteer work is valuable for a number of compelling reasons. YOU MAKE A DIFFERENCE. It is your chance to invest your time and energy in causes you believe in and often to help people who really need it. In the process you make an authentic difference in the lives of others. That is always highly gratifying. YOU GAIN ADDITIONAL LEADERSHIP SKILLS. Volunteering often invites individuals to step into roles they might not encounter in their business. Even if you’re used to taking charge - as a company owner or manager for instance - you will find that the dynamics of volunteering tend to be somewhat different. As a rule, they place particularly high value on teamwork. YOU MAKE CONTACTS. Volunteering enables you to meet and get to know all sorts of people whom you might not otherwise encounter. Some of these contacts can be valuable - whether it is a person who becomes a loyal customer to your company or someone who helps open the door to other opportunities.

Bixby Chamber Leadership Officials Volunteers and Staff
The strength of any organization, but particularly of a non-profit organization is in its leadership. Volunteers are the back-bone of our organization and we appreciate the many individuals who not only work full time, raise families, volunteer on other boards but STILL find time to make a valuable contribution to the Bixby Chamber.
If you would like to know more about volunteer involvement opportunities, please contact any of the leaders listed in this brochure or the Chamber office staff.
YOU BUILD LASTING FRIENDSHIPS. Working with others for a common cause is a wonderful way to forge enduring bonds of friendship. Shared effort engenders mutual respect and appreciation.
