The VSB Foundation Endowment Fund

Public benefits

Individual benefits: • Individuals through involvement in volunteering contributing to helping others and the community. • Individuals through involvement in volunteering gaining confidence, becoming more employable; improving their health through physical and mental activity; meeting people and becoming less socially isolated; learning about

their community and how to make a positive difference. • Individuals expressing active citizenship through contributing their time and actions to build communities where people can feel happy, safe and fulfilled. Organisational benefits: • Improved competence and capacity of volunteer involving organisations to involve and manage their volunteers effectively to enhance the experience and deliver greater community impact. Wider benefits: • Citizens taking responsibility for community well being. • A more cohesive and inclusive society. • A vibrant voluntary & community and charitable sector. These benefits can be demonstrated through feedback on our work and we do this through evaluating activities on an ongoing basis and sending out surveys to individuals and organisations to find out how satisfied they are with the services provided. No. The general public, volunteers and volunteer involving organisations. Where there is private benefit it is incidental including a sense of well being to those who volunteer and as appropriate training to enable volunteers, e.g. Charity Trustees, to effectively carry out their roles in delivering public benefit.
