Utah is full of nonprofits looking for volunteers! Volunteers make a huge difference for organizations. According to Independent Sector, the value of volunteer time in Utah is $24.39/hour! At that rate, if you give one hour a week for a year, you would be donating a value of over $1,000 to an organization over a one year period!
