Volunteer Florida commissioned the University of Florida to conduct a unique, large-scale study assessing volunteer engagement perspectives among Floridians. What motivates us to volunteer and what stands in the way of our involvement? Where do we volunteer and how frequently? What activities are we most committed to?  What effect did the COVID-19 pandemic have on our willingness and ability to volunteer? Answers to questions like these inform public action as well as strategy for organizations that achieve their strategic goals by mobilizing volunteers.
