Pro Bono O.R. is dependant on its volunteers in order to operate. Without our volunteers, the third sector would not be benefiting from all the free consultancy hours. These hours of face to face support and remote support that have so far been given to over 12 charities and the feedback has been overwhelmingly positive.
We are currently trying to measure the 'economic value' that Pro Bono O.R. is worth by measuring the number of hours/days a volunteer works on a projects multiplied by the hourly/daily rate of an O.R. consultant/analyst. We know that our volunteers are providing significant value but how much? Read the interesting blog below from NCVO on how much volunteering is worth to the UK
“It’s the economic value, stupid”…but is volunteering really worth £100bn to the UK?
