2008 Economic Impact of Arkansas Volunteers

Volunteer Service in Arkansas

Volunteerism in Arkansas plays an important role in the state’s effort to meet the needs of her citizens. The impact of volunteer service is felt throughout the state in terms of monetary value and the availability of services offered by organizations.

The survey and publication of The Economic Impact of Arkansas Volunteers began in 1983 by the Department of Human Services Division of Volunteerism (DOV). The information obtained from the survey is compiled and published annually in collaboration with the University of Arkansas at Little Rock (UALR) Institute for Economic Advancement. The findings from the 2008 study are presented in this publication.
