January 28, 2025- In our recent JABC Volunteer Satisfaction Survey, 100% of respondents shared positive experiences, with 97% recommending volunteering with JABC. Gathering insights from 33 dedicated volunteers across ten different programs, the survey highlighted the energy of the classroom, the impact volunteers made on students, and the strong support from JABC staff, resulting in an overall satisfaction rating of 4.56 out of 5.

JABC volunteers are the heart of our programs, helping students develop work-readiness, financial health, and entrepreneurship skills.

When asked why they volunteer, respondents shared a passion for giving back—whether it’s to share their knowledge, nurture their love for teaching, engage in a fulfilling and fun experience, or practice professional skills like leadership.

Volunteers especially enjoyed the excitement students exude during sessions, as well as the opportunity to meet JABC staff and connect with fellow volunteers.

While feedback was overwhelmingly positive, we recognize areas for improvement, including better alignment of facilitator materials. We’re actively working on these enhancements to make the volunteer experience even better.
