What is Virtual Volunteering?
A Rich Definition Conceived

We, at Macdonald Youth Services, have learned that
volunteering via the Internet isn’t about connecting,
cold inanimate machines, called computers, but is
really about an all inclusive concept, that eliminates
barriers and borders to bring people, whether of
varying religions, races, ethnicities and/or abilities
together, whether from around the corner or around
the world, to help non-profit organizations fulfill their
mission. Thus, virtual volunteering gives the Internet
a pulse – a heartbeat.
