Benefits of Volunteering:
Even if volunteering for the upcoming conference is pro bono, there are some benefits you may gain as you support the successful completion of the launching conference on July 17th, 2019 @AAU. Some of the following are the major benefits:

1. During the period of your volunteer work, you will learn some leadership lessons as you fulfill your obligation, interact with the Organizing Committee, and the Founder of PRO Leadership. This, in turn, enables you to take your leadership to the next height.
2. Since this initiative to bridge the leadership gaps in Africa is an ongoing and will continue in the coming years and decades until the leadership gaps in Africa bridged, you will be given priority to join the programs of the Initiative. These leadership programs are hands-on, transformational, and will empower you to succeed in your personal life and career. You will be given certifications as you complete these programs.
3. If you perform well during this volunteer work and successfully complete the first one-day intensive leadership workshop, you will be given a chance to attend the Train the Trainers program to be certified as a trainer to provide the programs of this Initiative in the future.
4. If you perform well during this volunteer work and attend some of the certification programs of this Initiative, you will have a chance to join the organization as a leader, and play active participation in the upcoming projects in Ethiopia and the rest of the continent. You may involve in leading, managing, designing, and/or delivering some of the programs around the country and in Africa.
5. Last but not least, PRO Leadership has ten years of experience in leadership. It’s a tax-exempt non-profit in the US and also has a Consultative Status at UN ECOSOC. Volunteering for such an organization and getting a certificate of acknowledgment for being a volunteer for this upcoming launching conference boosts your resume.
6. You also get a chance to meet like-minded new people and expand your network.
7. Many more.
