An electrical engineer with project-management experience shares how he volunteers with nonprofits. He coordinates youth camps, tree-planting events, soup kitchens, and Habitat for Humanity builds, turning business skills into community work that doesn't require technical expertise.
Your commitment to supporting nonprofits, it's pretty inspiring in everything that you do and how you help folks. But how do you leverage your business expertise to make a tangible impact in these areas?
Yeah, sure. Thank you. This is a really important topic. And I think entrepreneurs and the business world can do a lot. Initially, I would— I was an electrical engineer. That's what I studied in college. So I don't know if I couldn't help nonprofits with electrical engineering. Right. But I was also good in project management. So I would take on, if there's an event in a local community, maybe center, if there's an event with maybe like youth, helping them put together a maybe youth camp, or maybe take some of the youth and go plant a tree, or go and do a soup kitchen on a Sunday, or go and maybe do like a project with Habitat for Humanity. So I used project management as a skill that I had and helped nonprofits with that.
