Welcome to 'Hearts Helping Hands', a space dedicated to the transformative power of volunteering. I’m Melissa Carter, and I’m thrilled to share my journey and insights with you through this blog. Over the past two decades, I've immersed myself in the world of volunteering, and it has been nothing short of a profound adventure. From spearheading grassroots initiatives in underserved communities to collaborating with global non-profits, my career has been driven by a passion for making a difference.
My professional journey began in the heart of urban social work, where I quickly realized the immense impact volunteers have on driving change. This led me to pursue a Master's degree in Social Innovation and Volunteering, equipping me with a solid foundation to understand the dynamics of community service. Throughout my career, I've had the honor of receiving several awards recognizing my contributions to volunteer management and community engagement, including the National Volunteer Excellence Award.
