This article discusses the priceless value of volunteerism, a kind of enlightened self‐interest ‐ a way to serve a common cause that also serves your own interest. Local AWWA sections have plenty of volunteer opportunities, and the article mentions some of the benefits that come from Young Professionals (YPs) volunteer opportunities, such as enhancing a resume with volunteer activities that demonstrate your commitment and interest in the industry, not to mention the value received from industry networking.
