Volunteering with Bpeace has been an incredible experience, allowing me to meet people and support businesses I wouldn't normally work with. Bpeace provides the framework and support (including amazing interpreters!), I bring my expertise. The passion and challenges of the business owners make it truly rewarding both personally and professionally.

I honestly benefited from the experience as much as the businesses did. Our weekly meetings were something I really looked forward to and enjoyed. I have told everyone I know about it. What an amazing organization. I'm honored to be a part of it!

I was a little nervous at first, because I didn't necessarily consider myself a mentor or coach. It didn't take long to realize we are all the same, we all have had the same struggles and insecurities and my years as a manager and HR leader provided me with lots of experiences and lessons learned I could share with the mentees.

Featured story

Is the imposter syndrome a myth?

Even the most experienced volunteers often worry they might not have what it takes to advise businesses. They question if their skills are sufficient, if they can truly help a business, or how they can provide valuable advice in an unfamiliar sector. Concerns about meeting expectations are common. At Bpeace, we understand these challenges and are here to support you.
