    Book Chapter

    Devoting oneself to volunteerism and community service can be one of the most rewarding experiences that women in technical careers can have. Their contribution can just be simple, deliberate actions that they can take through the course of a day. One of the good ways to give back is to find interests that women in technical careers are passionate about and find out how they can contribute. Sites like VolunteerMatch offer no shortage of opportunities that help different communities and allow the tech to utilize a variety of skills. Another way is to make a direct money donation, if the resources permit. The chapter presents a few examples of other ways of giving back such as sharing information on jobs, free classes, and professional events; helping friends with their resume, with interviewing, or with another project they are working on; donating old gadgets; and using portals to donate to charitable organizations.
